<div dir="ltr">I'd rather stick to Digikam, as I need to make rather complicate selections before running the batch tool manager. I use the color tags a lot in order to select and group the pictures.<br>For about 550 pictures, I have 10 different sizes depending how big the final picture will be in the book. And I'll probably do it several times for some few pictures, if I decide to move them around, or give them more or less importance...<br>

As an alternative, assuming you work in the linux environment, why not try ImageMagick[1]. This is how I bulk process all my photos. To resize the images is relatively easy.<br>
<br>
convert $IMAGE -resize 600x600\> $SMALLER_IMAGE<br>
<br>
you can bulk convert many images by creating a script file that processes the files in a directory one by one.<br>
