Hallo. Does anyone know of an easy way to create pic thumbnails for a large batch of photos without using Adobe Photoshop’s automated web photo gallery OR without opening each photo individually and manually resizing it to a thumbnail?

Are there any programs out there that can easily do this for me?

ACDSee is one that comes to mind. It’s not a free program but they do have a 30-day trial that gives full functionality. It can resize, rename (batch) photos and make thumbnails also.

Make an action and save/name it.

File --\> Automate --\> Batch, then select the new action, choose a start folder (with all the images), a save folder. You can set the prefix, etc. for naming conventions.
