Bulk Resize Photos is a free web-based image resizer. Your photos are processed on your computer and don't get uploaded anywhere, so it's both super-fast and private.
The website was down, so I couldn't check this out. I already use an app called Photobulk for resizing and compression. Interested in seeing what's special about this when the site's back up though.
@msitver It works completely in your browser without needing to upload the images anywhere. This also allows for shareable/bookmarkable URLs with the resizing settings in the URL. So you can essentially create a preset to send to a friend, and as soon as they drag'n'drop photos in, those photos will be getting resized.
For example, this URL will resize images so that the longest side (width or height) is 1024 pixels and convert them to JPEG:

I made this after returning from a holiday in Hong Kong with some friends. The friend who had the best camera took about 5 GB worth of photos, so when it came time to share the photos, he had the most difficulty sending them to everyone else who went on the trip.
I wanted to make Bulk Resize Photos the most convenient way of resizing photos, so there's no need to install anything, images used are not uploaded anywhere, and after you visit the site for the first time, it can work offline. The operation my friend had wanted to do should only take a few clicks, now.
If anyone has any feedback or feature requests, please send them through! I'm very receptive to that.
This is just super easy.
My friend took great photos of the Product Hunt Meetup here, I wanted to share them. Instead of going through each one and resizing them with Preview on the mac; I dragged them onto BulkResizePhotos. It resized them all for me and placed them in a folder in my downloads.
There is now an express version of the app that as presets such as resizing for a Facebook profile image, and so on.
Very handy, simple and saves tonnes of time.
