Easiest way to reduce multiple photos file size using Picasa 3

I have been using GIMP to reduce my pictures before this. The process is bit slow if you have many photos. Found out that Picasa 3 could the job much faster.

The steps are as follows:

1. Download Picasa 3, if you don't have one.

2. Open the program.

3. Picasa will auto scan your folders for photos, if it didn't found your photo folder. Then click File > Add Folder To Picasa. Then scan the folder that got the images.

Scan the photos

4. Then click the photo that you want to reduce the file size and click File > Export Picture To Folder.

Export the photos

5. At Export To Folder pop up, select the folder that you want to export your photo. Name the folder name. Click Resize To to reduce the file size. 800 pixel is good enough if you want upload your photos to website or blog. Add your watermark. And then click export. That's all.
