Resizing pictures

[jorweeck]

Eversince I used ACDSee, I find using the default Apple pic app (Preview) to be a bit lacking with features.

Can I resize with Preview or with iPhoto? how do I go about that?

dunno if i get it right, do you mean resize or crop?

to crop:

on preview, switch selection tool.
crop photo as deisred, copy and paste to a new document. save.

to resize; try this.

Try ImageWell. Thanks, Carlo.

Baka you don't even need a third-party app.
You can also resize pictures while exporting from iPhoto.

I meant resizing. I actually do them in photoshop but it's just too tedious to resize about 50 photos individually. My Photoshop skills aren't exactly competent too.

If I ever do get to resize the image, the image quality is still at its best and eats up a lot of disk space as well.

I'll try your recommendations guys. Thanks!

Simple way:
You could actually select a group of photos for export and batch resize them via iPhoto.
Complicated way:
Since you mentioned Photoshop, why not create a "resize" batch droplet and just drop the contents of your folder for automatic resizing?

Expensive way: Burn your photos to CD, slip them in an LBC packet and send them to Carlo and pay him to resize them for you.
