Ok so heres the deal. I run a website in which pictures are posted weekely. However before i insert the pics to the web i have to resize them to thumbs...and that is time consuming on 20 pics a day. Is there anyway i can write a script of do something in which i just (this is the idea) just put them in the folder and they automatically get resized to my specs. (once again that is the easiest way of kinda explain what im aiming for). I run my site through DreamWeaver MX, i have all the programs On Macromdeia and Adobe.....Any help would rock!

If your host supports PHP & has the GD or ImageMagick library installed, you can do this dynamically. But what you're probably looking for is a batch image processing program. I use vimas image master, which they've replaced with Vimas web image guru. It works pretty nicely. There may be free ones out there too...A competent PHP programmer could whip one out in a couple hours.

Good Luck,
