Quick Batch Image resizing tip

Today I had quite a few photos to resize, but I really didn't want to have to do them manually.

After a bit of googling I found out that as normal the mac has some great utilities built in.

sips --resampleWidth 1500 *

Will resample all the pictures in your directory to have a maximum width of 1500 pixels.
You can choose an output directory, or I would just backup your images first just incase you want the originals.
The images end up with a reasonable file size to.

Sips can do all sorts of other thing to like converting file formats.
