You can download IrfanView for free at:

http://www.eviltool.net/irfan.html

This program will reduce any number of photos in seconds. I use it for 
reducing for WEB size and thumbnails, but the program will reduce photos to 
any size you want. I have PhotoShop, and PhotoImpact11 that will also reduce 
photos but not as easily as IrfanView.

Each photo software program I use has some feature that I like best, but I 
always use Ifran for photo size reduction.
