FastStone Image Viewer is my personally favorite.
http://www.faststone.org/

It does batches for just about any operation, including resizing or converting file-types.

Get photoshop. use the save for web feature. DO NOT use a jpg for most of your bigger photos. but play around with the presets. try and go for png's and gif's for you large images, and mainly for the images associated with aesthetics (ex: menu background pictures) .

GIMP might do batch processing as well.

GIF has a low color depth so the results will not be desirable for photos.

The JPG vs. PNG conversation really depends on how you're compressing and optimizing the images. You don't necessarily need to compress at 100% (lossless) quality unless you intend to distribute the files for use in other places.

In this case, the important part is resizing them; you'd be fine with JPGs at a quality setting of 95% or less. (Edit: That is, for the photos mentioned above.)

TeachWiz,

One thing I would recommend is contacting Dan Zollman mentioned up top. He is fantastic at giving feedback and I would like to publicly thank him for looking over our entire site. We will be implementing 80 percent of what he said maybe more if time allows.

Thank you from team 1323.
