I need to know how to do several thing in Adobe Photoshop

[PC Freak]

I have 24 jpg files and they are all different sizes.

I would like to know of a plugin or other function that can do this quickly and easily for me.

I need to make them all 600x???
I then need to make them all thumbnails.

Thanks

I don't think you can do that with Photoshop, but you can with(I think) with PaintShopPro. You can do a Batch Conversion, though it may only convert from one format to another, but it might resize as well. Just download the demo version and check it out.

However, you can resize in Photoshop, you just need to repeat the process 24 times(1 time for each image). Load your Images into Photoshop, goto Image/Image resize, enter in the dimensions you want and click OK.

What version of Photoshop do you have? I know with PS 7.0+ or even 6.0+ you can create an "ACTION" ("Window" -> "Actions") and record the resize to 600x, then you go to "FILE" -> "AUTOMATE" -> "BATCH" and select the action you just created. You will have the option to select the source and destination folder among other features.

Hope this helps.

You can do that with Photoshop. You just have to create an action and then run it on the folder of pictures.

Does it Resize though(as per OP question)?

Good to know though, I need to switch Formats on occassion, often with scores of Images.

Yeah, of course it does. It's a $600 piece of image editing software.

You open a picture, start recording an action, resize, apply sharpening, auto color balance, etc. and then stop the recording. Now you have an action that will resize, sharpen, fix colors and you can apply this action on an entire folder of images with the automate feature.

These things may seem a little harder to do in Photoshop, but you can get tons of functionality out of it.

irfanview can do that easily enough also, and it's free.

I prefer Graphic WorkShop Pro to do batch resize and create nice thumbnail.

IrfanView is ideally suited to tasks like this.
