Software that resizes numerous pics at once?

[Flybye]

Anyone know of a programmy that takes a bunch of pics, resizes them, and saves them in what series of names you want?

I'm getting kinda tired of taking 100+ pics and having to manually resize them all for email.

I've tried installing Google's Picassa a few times, but when I mount the dmg, viewing it does nothing. It seems like Google hasn't worked on it in a while anyways.

Automator?

Go to versiontracker.com. I saw something like that when I was searching for stuff to put on my mac. There are also Applescripts that will do that.

Sky Blue got it!

I found this:

and it worked great! Thx!

Wow. I should seriously look deeper into what else Automator can do.

Yeah automater is an unheralded gem. If you are running SL take a look at these MacBreak videos (iTunes Links):

You don't need to resize photos to email. Drop the photos you want to email on mail in the dock and look at the bottom right corner of the new message window that opens. Or you can open a new message window from inside Mail and drop the photos in and the selection box will appear on the bottom right again. Even Preview will batch resize photos when you select and drop multiple files or a Folder on it.

Thanks guys for all the suggestions. I use Thunderbird but I also upload plenty of images to my server.

I now have a new service that automatically copies, renames, and resizes the images selected.
