Hey, all.

I’m looking to take some of my photos and fire them up on the web.

Part of the process will involve creating thumbnails.

To this point, the best thumbnail creation program I’ve come across is Express Thumbnail Creator, because of its ability to do batch processing, shrink to any size you want (including just a slight reduction in size as opposed to little tiny thumbnails), and the fact that the output files are very small. Surprisingly small.

ThumbsPlus maxes out at 600 pixels. I know that’s not a thumbnail size, but Express is more flexible in this regard.

The version of Express I’ve been using does not retain EXIF, however. But the new version apparently does.

Before I go grab this thing, I thought I’d see if anyone else had strong recommendations for other thumbnail creation software. Requirements are:

-Good use of compression, so small output file size
-Ability to resize to very small images, or only slightly smaller than original
-Batch processing
-Retains EXIF.

Recommendations appreciated!
