how do i reduce file sizes for pictures all at once?

Question

after i put pictures on my digital camera and want to save them to my computer, the file sizes are very big (close to 3 mb a picture), and if i had a large hard drive, i woudlnt care too much but that is not teh case....also the size of the picture is humongous (like 2100x1400....prob not that much but i think you get what i mean)


now i kno how to reduce each file indivisouly with Paint, (Image>Sketch and Skrew), and i reduce the percentage size, which would make the picture a lot smaller and reduce the file size by a lot

does anyone kno how to do this to all the pictures at once or do i have to do them indiviually which obivoulsy would be a pain in the behind?

Answer 1

there is a program you can download off of the internet, it is related to a myspace run server which lets you dowsize pictures size and resolution, im pretty sure its free.

Answer 2

With photoshop, you can make a batch.
Then you do it once, select a folder and the program does the rest... Very handy, unfortunately photoshop isn't for free :-(

You can download a free trial version at www.adobe.com
