I have a friend who has a portrait studio and is wanting a program that will do these three things: Resize, lower resolution and watermark groups of photos. She is sending out proofs to people and they are taking them to Wallyworld & blowing them up. TIA

Edit: I just realized that a program I had played around with some years ago will do 2 of the three. And if you set the output size small enough, the blown up pix will be low res enough.

Buy Photoshop Elements. Lots of firepower on the cheap.

If free is the key...GIMP does almost everything PS can do.

Your friend has a photo studio and does'nt have photoshop? WTF? Just get Elements and learn to use it, only $70 bucks or so for last generation copy. That free **** is free for a reason and I've tried and own lots of software. I shoot Nikon so I use NX2 and NIK plugins for many things, but PS is a must for some things.

WOW! If they'd had that feature available years ago we'd have never been able to detect those 'shopped magazine photos of non-existent crowds and acres of aluminum at .1RL races!

:D

I use this too, it's great for batch processing. It does do watermarks (although I haven't tried it).

Looks like Adobe has ported some of the features from Lightroom to CS5. If all you need is a photographic tools and don't need all the graphic design stuff Lightroom might be a better choice.

ACDSee is a good inexpensive organizer with quick point and shoot resizing and cropping. No idea if it does watermarking.
