Hi, I was hoping someone could help me.
I am using Photoshop v7.
I have a bunchof pictures that I want to publish on the web. I am trying to create thumbnails (which when clicked open up a window with the actual sized picture). I want to:
… given a picture called zzz.jpg I want to
1. resize the picture
2. choose "save for web" as this creates really compact images for web publishing
3. I want the file renamed as zzz_small.jpg
Now I want to do this for around 100 or more pictures. I have tried setting up an "Action" and have successfully been able to do steps 1 and 3. But the images are still too large (around 50 kb). I have noticed that if i manually resize and "save for web", it creates a smaller image file (around 5 kb).
Can someone tell me how to incorporate "save for web" in addition to renaming the file as zzz_small.jpg for several hundred files in photoshop?
Many thanks!
Peter
