Hi Russ, I'm not sure whether you'll be able to find programs allowing sorting and burning a CDs at the same time. This one is a great program and it is completely free !! http://www.irfanview.com/ (thanks to Bob T who pointed me to that program first) Ok I did down load it and it looks pretty good. Mostly what I do is Theatrical Photos. For example last night I set up my portable at a rehearsal and did Head Shots of 8 performers. Here is what I am looking to do. I have down loaded the jpegs. on to my computer. These are Super HQ jpegs. at 1/4 compression. The photos were automatically downloaded with numbers 001-112 . I want to be able to as a batch copy these and convert them to a low resolution jpeg. The idea is to burn each person a CD with their photos, but the images on their CD will be a low res. images so they can't make a decent print from it. It would be great to be able to convert the batch as a whole. Then re name the images in small groups as I burn each persons CD(ie: Bob 001, Bob 002, Bob 003, Bob 004 etc etc) I don't want to change the original jpegs in this process as I will be making the enlargements from these. (Yes I know that as I do any manipulation on the originals I should save as a Tiff.) I would hope that this program will let me do this? Thanks Russ R.E. Baker Photography rebphoto@pronetisp.net
