Squash is a lightweight fast batch image resizer. I could end the article here because the previous sentenced is a good summary of what Squash is able to do. Add multiple images to Squash, select a new size for them, and click on Resize images. That’s the process in detail.
It’s possible to specify a destination directory for the resized images, add a suffix to the filename – something like thumb or small would do – and if you want to overwrite existing images in that directory.
There is no preview of the output images, no information on file size, no choice of file extension. As I said it’s lightweight and does only one thing at the moment. I still like Squash because it is easy to use, mainly because of the missing options of course.
Squash is available for Windows and Linux. [via Genbeta]

My favourite easy to use image resizer has always been VSO Image Resizer, but this looks even simpler – might give it a go for relatives who need an easy way to get their camera pics smaller for email, although it doesn’t look much more powerful than the XP Powertoy…

Worth a look if you need more powerful/advanced options but at the same time can be used with no knowledge :)
Picture Resize (300kb) is a neat little image resizing tool

I just built an online app to do this same thing. Check it out at www.ezyimageresizer.com.
Runs in the browser, so no need to install anything. Also, it runs as a java applet, so no need to upload/download files to a server.
Quick and simple!
