Yes. Python Imaging Library (PIL) is the preferred Python way to do this. The example is right in the documentation. http://www.pythonware.com/library/pil/handbook/image.htm from PIL import Image import glob, os size = 128, 128 for infile in glob.glob("*.jpg"): file, ext = os.path.splitext(infile) im = Image.open(infile) im.thumbnail(size, Image.ANTIALIAS) im.save(file + ".thumbnail", "JPEG") -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
