[QUOTE="Fork, post: 92469, member: 10937"] Hi Folks, I've stumbled upon a problem I can't seem to crack with google searches. I can't seem to simplify my search terms enough to get a good enough answer. There must be someone here that can tell me how this is done or whether it even can be done. I have a folder with a lot of images in it. They are not my images, but my job today is to try to resize the images to smaller dimensions. When I say a lot of images I'm talking about [B]6,000[/B] images, so I'm not going to resize them individually. A bit of background: I shoot images for a client and crop them all to 500px x 500px. That's just the optimum size for the type of images I shoot and the website they appear on. The client has these 6,000 images of their own which will also be used on the website, but the images are of all shapes and sizes (and frankly, ****ness, but that's not my problem!) and some are in portrait and some are in landscape orientation. I want to reduce the dimensions of all of the images so that they are no bigger than 500px [B]on the longest side[/B] whilst [B]keeping the current ratio[/B]. How can I do that? I know how to batch process images and set the px dimensions with the image processor, but how can I tell it just to resize the longest side to 500px whilst keeping the proportions of the original? I'm sure I'll kick myself! Thanks! [/QUOTE]
