I have not been able to find a batch processing function in Elements. If I want to do what you want to do, I use ACDSee.

With the cost of storage today there seems to be little need to reduce resolution. I understand there still are some special needs to do so, but it would seem that very few need to reduce the size of an image.

An easy way to reduce size is to find the pictures in Windows Explorer, highlight all and right click and select send to mail recipient.

I’m guessing that you are not involved in camera club digital photo contests.

The rules stipulated by the Photographic Society of America, and used by all of their member clubs, organizations and individuals, are that images submitted for a digital competition MUST be sized no larger than 1024 by 768, and SHOULD be no larger than 350 kilobytes. Any image exceeding the resolution limit will be automatically disqualified. And since they are to be projected via computer, the best way to ensure that the byte size is within the soft limit is to reduce the DPI to 96 or 72.

Personally, I think it’s time for them to update the maximum size limitations to at least 1200 by 1024 and the byte size to at least 500k. Today’s computers and software can either display that natively, or resize down the image display with no loss of quality.

Notes on Fortress Construction: 14. All deathtraps will have only one way in or out. Any way out should lead to an even more cunning and fast-working deathtrap.
