[Hidden-tech] auto conversion of photo files to smaller size

[Jan Werner]

If you are working in Windows, The easiest and fastest way to resize or 
modify a large number of files is to use the batch conversion routine in 
IrfanView, a file viewer that can do a lot more than viewing images.

In particular, the advanced options for bulk resizing in the batch 
conversion panel provides for enormous flexibility in target output, and 
Irfanview's jpeg encoding is considered better than PhotoShop's.
