What software are you using?
In Lightroom use the export function.
In Bridge I think there's a similar function. |

Hi Juliet - There was a similar thread a couple of weeks ago:
//www.dpchallenge.com/forum.php?action=read&FORUM_THREAD_ID=875046
and I posted a script that would resize things automatically. In that thread several people had other suggestions, which I haven't had time to look at, but I meant to look at this one:
Originally posted by MWitt: I just use Photoshop's Automated Web Gallery to create my images. It allows you to put in a max size for both X & Y. Plus you can give it the jpg compression percentage, copyright notice, and thumbnails(which can be sized as well). I just toss out the web pages when its done. |
I'm dashing off right now, but if you want more help I'll check in later (or you can pm me) |

There's a nice, easy way to do it in Photoshop:
FILE -> SCRIPTS -> IMAGE PROCESSOR
Just select your target folder with your RAW shots, tell it where to put them, how to size them, etc., and let 'er rip!

I can remember doing the Happy Dance when I discovered that tool for the first time. It has made life remarkably sweet. :)
To take things a step further, in Photoshop open up a bunch of RAW files at once to get the Camera RAW interface. Go through each shot and make tonal adjustments, etc., available in that area. Don't open each shot individually in Photoshop; just make the adjustments to a shot in Camera RAW, and move on to the next one. You can even use that interface to crop and rotate the shots, or clone out specs, or any number of other adjustments.
If you have a bunch of shots that were shot in the same light and need the same adjustments, you can select the first shot you adjusted, and "synchronize" a bunch of other selected shots to match the attributes of the first one. That saves a bunch of time, too.
When you're done with the bunch of them, click the "Done" button. That will create a bunch of .XMP files to accompany your RAW files. The XMP files contain the instructions for the adjustments you made. When you use the Image Processor script, it will use those adjustments on each file you adjusted.
That's the workflow I always use... I copy my RAW files, make adjustments to them with Camera RAW, and then use Image Processor to convert everything to JPGs.
