batch tool to reduce jpg sizes?

[reggiep]

Hi all,

I have a massive wad of jpg images from years of camera use within the school.

I am looking at saving a bit of server space so I am trying to find a tool to reduce the size of the images "en masse"

 

Has anyone anything in mind that might do this?

 

Thanks

I use this tool - resize

 

You can't beat it at 729 KB, easy to use drag and drop.

 

Irfanview is very good too!

I use fireworks. File > Batch > Resize > Export Job Done.

 

Do it all the while for staff who want to send a million jpgs @ 10mp as 1 attachment
