I can't say enough nice things about Irfanview. I have lots of full-featured programs, but nothing will shrink and change the JPG quality in batch mode like Irfanview. You could turn a long list of 750K files from a 3.1 megapixel camera into 60K files for e-mailing and Cellar posting.
It's one of the best freeware photo apps out there.
