Best way to resize a batch of pictures to a fixed size and making corners as well?

    I would like to know what the best option would be for me to process a batch of images into a single size, i.e. 80x120...and also giving them rounded corners?


    Any suggestions guys?

    batch resize is easy. rounding the corners is probably a little tougher. I'm sure a photoshop macro could be made to do that. Sometimes I use this to make thumbnails real quick:

    Lately, I just use photoshop though - easier and I can control the resolution too.

    Thanks for the link Lorien, that looked very helpfull and will be trying it out as soon as i have my collection of images ready.

    I was wondering if there isn't a tool that can stamp out the images from a mold so to speak...i know it sounds strange but if you can give it a overlay of some sort of shape and then cut everything of outside the overlay in a automated manor.

    That would be exactly what i need.

    You can try creating an action like this, or using this one if it suits your needs

    You can add a custom shape over the image-> selects the pen tool (p) -> Right click -> Select "MakeS election" (or something like this I am too lazy to start PS) -> Invert the selection (ctrl+shift+i) -> press delete
    If you want your picture to be on a transparent background make sure you unlock the image layer before deleting (if it is the background layer of course )

    Hope that helps
