I am trying to resize a number of files in batch. I created a new action and then went to automate. But the files actually end up bigger even though I made the pixel size smaller. Any ideas how to get them to actually get smaller in batch?

Great. That pretty much does the trick. Is there a way to rename the thumbnails in the process? Be great if I could add "small" to the filename.

Thanks,
