Re: Software to backup pictures with recompression

Hi,

I am looking to backup my digital pictures to my FTP/web space online. However, I have more than 4 Gb of pictures, most of my pictures are taken at 2 or3 mega pixels, so the individual files are quite large. What I would like to do is recompress all the pictures to a lower resolution (say 800x600) before the backup, so the size is much smaller.

This way, I can achieve backup and still at least have the pictures viewable at screen quality in case my PC fails.

Does anybody know a tool/utility, able to do batch processing/recompression of pictures, and also able to work accross sub-folders automatically?

Thanks,
Tom
