Hi, as stated there is a set of tools that might do a more straightforward job for resizing a bunch of pictures. With Gimp however you can install the "gimp-plugin-registry" package, which will give you access under the "filters > Batch" menu to a batch processing tool, which includes resizing/cropping facilities for a bunch of files. You will have to set up a few options, so it will take time and it's not worth bothering if you don't have many pictures to process (160 should qualify...). If you want to work from a graphical user interface, you can also use most pictures manager program like Digikam or Gwenview, they usually include an easy to use resizing tool.
