then you need to use something such as ImageMagick to reduce the size of the images. Jpeg images are already "compressed" within your camera, ie: jpeg images *are* compressed images. Warning, you *will* loose detail by reducing the size of your jpeg images. > It doesn't seem like picasa-linux has a precompressing option, so I'm > wondering if there's some sort of software or shell program to > compress jpgs in a certain folder or of a certain range of filenames > each into a maximum size. I wondering if perhaps there is some mis-understanding here as I have not heard of a *precompressing* option in any linux photo app. > Alternatively, wondering if there's any workaround for this within > picasa-linux. ImageMagick can reduce the *size* of your images, re warning above. Also, "picasa-linux" is a mis-nomer. There is *no* linux based picasa, but only a windows executable that is runable under/via wine. Never has been and afaict never will be. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google-Labs-Picasa-for-Linux" group.
