The ImageMagick ``convert'' program can be used to coerce images into some specified geometry, scaling as necessary. I use this in a perl script to create thumbnails of all the images in a directory, creating HTML pages indexing the images. Using these pages with Opera, and having opera set to pull images up with the gimp is a handy way of being able to select from a library of images for editing.
