I confess: I'm a Linux guy... ~:-)
I'm working with Arch Linux for a few years now having quite a lot experiences with other Linux distributions before and I always wonder why tasks can be done so easy in Linux...
Need to resize pictures often?
After once downloading and installing a package called Imagemagick simple bash commands like this will further do the job for you:
convert 'example.jpg' -resize 50% 'example.resized.jpg'
This example command spits out a copy of the original picture that is resized by 50 percent.
Done!
If you need other resize mechanisms (and there are really a lot of possibilities) then the Imagemagick website has a lot of helpful informations for you.
