First, I presume you wish to change the dimensions of the entire image. Am I
correct? If I am, then Yes sir, there is a way to change the Fit Image size.
Just put your cursor into the box and change the dimensions to the maximum
you will accept in each dimension.

However, if you aren't forcing every image to exactly the same size, then it
might be easier to use "image size". That will reduce the entire image, all
layers in acccord. You can then save it as a different name if you wish to
keep the originals intact. You can use an 'action' to automate it. If this
sounds daunting, perhaps we can step you through the first one. Once you see
how easily it is done, and how fast it is, I think it will change the way
you work.
