Resizing multiple image files with ImageMagick
For the first DragonScales post I had several PNGs with a 1920×1200 resolution. Nevertheless, the ideal width for images in this blog is about 600 pixels:

This is a frequent issue when publishing images here. Thereby I recur to ImageMagick in order to resize sets of images. ImageMagick’s command line tools are excellent and indispensable tools for our work. For instance, on Windows command prompt, it’s enough to type:
forfiles /M *.png /C “cmd /c convert -resize 31% @file resized_@file”
That way all of the images will have resized versions, at 31% their original size, yielding a 600-pixels width approximately. Very useful. And ImageMagick is a great piece of software.
