Default Bulk resizing of photos?

Someone recently posted the name of a free program they found ideal for bulk resizing. I thought I'd noted it down but now I can't find it. Can anyone help, please?

I use Web Resizer. Works like a dandy.

I use Faststone Photo Resizer, it's free and will do a very good job on as many photo's as you want. Also can add a logo or watermark and rename as it resizes.

You could create a droplet in Photoshop. Open the Actions window and then open one of the images you will be resizing. Then hit the record button (make sure to do this part with 100% accuracy) resize setting that you want for all the images and make any other adjustment you want on all of the images. Once you are done with that press the stop button. Then go to File-Automate-create droplet. Choose what you want to save your droplet as and the destination and all that good stuff. You can use it at any time by dragging your photos onto the droplet exe

I used the Image Resizer Powertoy for Windows. select the batch of .jpgs in Win Explorer, right-click on one of them, & select "Resize Pictures". At the next window, choose the size you wanna resize them all to (or specify your own), click OK, & sit back it'll create resized copies of the originals by default, or it'll overwrite the originals if you specify it to.

for WinXP: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx
for Win7: http://www.addictivetips.com/windows...indows-7vista/ (has screenshot of the resizing interface too)
