If I have 100 images in hi resolution and need to reduced them to say 72
DPI. Is there a way to do them all at the same time or do I need to downsize
them one at a time..using elements 5, I have elements 2 on comp also
Thanks

I have not been able to find a batch processing function in Elements.
If I want to do what you want to do, I use ACDSee.

With the cost of storage today there seems to be little need to
reduce resolution. I understand there still are some special needs to
do so, but it would seem that very few need to reduce the size of an
image.

An easy way to reduce size is to find the pictures in Windows Explorer,
highlight all and right click and select send to mail recipient.

I'm guessing that you are not involved in camera club digital photo
contests.

The rules stipulated by the Photographic Society of America, and used
by all of their member clubs, organizations and individuals, are that
images submitted for a digital competition MUST be sized no larger than
1024 by 768, and SHOULD be no larger than 350 kilobytes. Any image
exceeding the resolution limit will be automatically disqualified. And
since they are to be projected via computer, the best way to ensure
that the byte size is within the soft limit is to reduce the DPI to 96
or 72.

Personally, I think it's time for them to update the maximum size
limitations to at least 1200 by 1024 and the byte size to at least
500k. Today's computers and software can either display that natively,
or resize down the image display with no loss of quality.
