    Posted by Luke Pearson on August 16, 2007 at 5:13 pm

    I’m working on a slide show for a wedding and the pictures that I was given are HUGE so its slowing down my system. How can I resize all the images to a good editing size without having to do each one individually? Whats a good size to make the pictures?

    Thanks so much.

    Do a photoshop batch resize.

    A good size for pictures is roughly 1.5 to 2 times the size of your video frame depending on ow far you plan on zooming in.

    It’s really the easiest way.

    [LukeWarm13] “How do i know what the video frame size is?

    By the format you are working in.

    alright, my frame size is 720×480.

    and you would make the stills 1.5 times that size?

    which is 1080 x 720.

    That should do it, 72dpi JPEGs.

    I think you can use Apple’s Automator to resize a folder full of images. Check out this link:
