There's a great freeware program called Irfanview (google search will find it).  I use it as a picture viewer although it can also play most media types including music and video if you install the plugins.

It also includes a batch conversion feature that allows you to resize pictures (either as a % of the original or to a set size).  You should just be able to add all the big album images in, set the size you want and run the batch conversion.

Interesting...

I wonder if i could create something to supliment MC9 Coverart Finder With Something.

Looking at the following link it might be possible.

does anyone know of any more Coverart Sites That Use The Artist Name And Then the CD Name? If So Please List Them Below

On a related topic, not sure if everyone here has seen the very useful (if still somewhat buggy) program called Gotcha Covered.  It's available at http://home.mchsi.com/~ron.crawley/

There's a good thread about it over at AVS forums

http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=242988&highlight=Gotcha+Covered

It allows batch lookups of CD covers using the Walmart and several other databases and will then automatically save the cover images to the appropriate album folders.

King
Thanks for the program , i will give it a try.
I have few links for sites having sleeves. Most of them limited to a genre.
I have a lot of favorites on flopy.
I will give you the links very soon.
I got 95% of my sleeves from SuperTags , but it would be really good to give more to MC/MJ users

I wish you a very nice evening celebration
