Post Bulk photo resizing

Do you have lots of photos that you would like to upload that are larger than GearsGarage's max 1600x1200 resolution or 2000K file size?

Here is a tutorial on how to resize photos in large numbers at once using Faststone Photo Resizer:

  1. Download FastStone Photo Resizer 1.4 here
  2. Install the program
  3. Start the program
  4. Make sure the Batch Convert tab is selected
  5. On the right side under Source: navigate to the location of your photos
  6. Select and highlight the files and/or folders containing the photos that you want to resize (hold ctrl key to select multiple items at once)
  7. Press the Add button
  8. Next to where it says Output format:, select JPEG images (*.jpg)
  9. Next to that press the Settings button
  10. Slide the quality setting to 70% and press OK
  11. Next to Output Folder: press the Select button
  12. Navigate and/or create the folder you want the resized photo to go, then press OK
  13. Check the box that says Use advanced options (i.e. resize...) if it isn't already and press the Advanced Options button
  14. Make sure the Resize / Resample box is checked and that In Pixels is selected then in the Pick a Standard Size dropdown, select 1600x1200 (or smaller if you prefer) then press OK
  15. Make sure the Rename box is unchecked if you dont want Faststone to rename your photos
  16. Press the Start button

All done. It may take several minutes depending on how many photos you are processing and the speed of your computer.
