This is just to point out my less than optimal solution to my problem.
I wanted to batch resize hundreds of images so I could upload them to my site, the catch was that I wanted to do it from any pc overseas on the internet with a small program that I could keep on my website. After finding no software built into windows I went looking for some freeware apps including the image resizing powertoy (XP only), and irfanview. These were pretty inadequite for what I wanted so I wrote my own program in C#.NET.

Long story short I've had to fall back on Irfanview at the moment. If anyone has some stunning solution or a tiny app that will resize the photos off my digital camera to upload please comment. (Please note that I only want to resize JPG's. The smaller the program the better).
