FastStone for Mac

[Marc]

FastStone hasn't a Mac version, as far as I can tell.

Anyone know a good alternative for quick photo resizing on a Mac?

I do it in Preview.

Set Preview preferences; Select General, then select Open all Files in One Window.

Open the folder with the images. Select all files, open them. They open with thumbnails on the left and a selected pic on the right.

Select All Images again.

Go to Tools in the Menu Bar, pull down menu, Select Adjust Size.

Set the pixel count or any other parameter, then Click Okay.

Close the files. They'll resize. I usually take low rez pics, about 280kb. I resize them down to just about nothing....50-80kb.

It sucks because it's not nearly as cool as Fastone. It's really nice because it integrates with all the rest of OSX in all sorts of fantastic ways that I'm still discovering.

You can't punch your name onto each photo. Actually, you can, but you have to write a script or something. I stopped caring about having my name on pics when I couldn't do it easily like in Fastone.

Thanks.
