Shaun, I found one (LiveQuartz) which may be accessible but I'm
still working with it, as it seems incredibly flakey with VO but it
could be me! lol! Some of the relevant controls seem to show up,
however I still can't get it to actually resize the img. I'll let
ya know as soon as I know more, K?… -And, if you figure it out,
please do give me a shout out?…
Smiles,
Cara :)

Oh no, I have one image and I need to play around with sizing it
for more than one thing. I think a imaging resizing tool will work
better for this project.

Hi Shaun,

Listers does anyone know of a imaging resizing tool that's

and possibly converts in inches as well as pixels?
You can create a batch resizing tool yourself in Automator -- at
least one
that will work in pixels. Follow the instructions on this web page:
(How to Batch Resize Images Without a Photo-Editing Program on
Your Mac)
http://www.ehow.com/PrintArticle.html?id=2101532
Instead of "dragging" just double-click the actions that you
select to
add them to the workflow (hold down VO-keys+shift and tap your
space bar twice). When I select the "Rename Finder Items" action
I only need to press enter to get the "Copy Finder Items" action
added
as a default when I double-click on "Rename Finder Items" -- I don't
need to "Click Add" as they describe on the warning menu that comes
up -- just the carriage return works.
I would save this as a plug-in so that you can access the result
from a
contextual menu when you're done.
Since this works for me (even in Tiger), you should have no problems
setting this up as an Automator action under Leopard. You can set
the
resizing to be in pixels or in per centage size, but not inches.
You might be able to modify this under Leopard, because I think
there
are also ways to handle image resizing using Preview, but I don't
know
more about this.
Post back if you have problems.
Cheers,
Esther
