Is there any way to Save For Web on multiple files? I have 150 images from a trip I took that I want to put up as a gallery, but want to save them all for web to decrease file size. Is there no way to do this all at once with PE2? I find it hard to believe that it’s no possible. I’ve seen posts here asking, but haven’t seen any real answers.

Thanks.

That can be done in full PS but not in Elements.

Try "Create Web Photo Gallery." This makes two folders of images, one for full size and one for thumbnails.

There are options in the "Create" dialog that you might overlook, so experiment a bit.

Actually, guys, I notice something very interesting when I was experimenting. When you make a web photo gallery, PE2 seems to actually discard whatever info from the image that Save For Web does, so this is a moot point. Wonderful, actually, but I wish it were more obvious that it did this. I found this out from comparing file sizes. 244k from regular resizing and 154k from saving for web. The result from creating the web photo gallery was also 154k.
