windows based batch image resizing programs

[sully]

hey guys,

i've been asked to recommend a good windows-based batch image resizer for a friend. i'm not a windows user, so my recommendations wouldn't be an option. so, if any of you guys know of a small program that works well and is easy to use, is free or inexpensive, and can resize/rename (and preferrably watermark), i'm all ears.

I use AcDsee 9 Photo Manager. Quite a cool program. It's quite easily found on any torrent site... Not sure it watermarks...

ifranview can do it, I do believe.

It's the only thing I use on windows for viewing / minor editing of images.

Sully, I use the XP Power Toys Image Resizer. It integrates into the shell. Select as many images as you want in Windows Explorer, right click "Resize Pictures".
