Creating thumbnail images

Postby imnuts on Tue Jun 08, 2004 3:09 pm

I want to know of an easy way of creating thumbnail images so i can put them on my website so people can get a preview of the desktop wallpapers i have before actually viewing the full size one. does anyone know an easy way to do this cause i know you can just resize the image and save as, but i was wondering if there is a utility that can create them with like one click. and also, what is the usual size of thumbnails.

if you have photoshop, you can automate this process using actions.

there is a very good explanation on how to do it in the help file in photoshop.

in acdsee you can create a website with thumbnails, links and full size photos and then just assign the style in frontpage or whatever you may have as your webpage editor.

Photoshop can definitly do it, and most other image editing software can also do it.
