batch image resize and compression

I need a program that can take a directory full of images and resize and compress them, anybody know of any programs like that?

#!/bin/bash
for pic in `ls -1 *.jpg`
do
convert $pic -resize 800x600 $pic
done

Just a quick and dirty hack :)

Cheers,

Yes, use ImageMagick. It's dirt simple to resize and convert entire directories. Be carefull not to accidently convert things you want left though!

use "mogrify" to change an image in place, and "convert" to create an alternate version of it.

lots of possibilities.
