Right, work have given me the task to prep up some images for a bid submission for this afternoon. I did remind them early this week that I would need the photos asap so I could do them at home using my pc and gimp, but predictably, I've only been given the photos today and my work pc has no photo software. Is there anything online that will help me do this? If not, I could ask the IT team what photo software they hold and install on my machine but that is likely to take ages knowing them.

Upload high resolution zip file
Images must:
> Be saved in JPG format at least 300 dpi resolution
> Be a minimum size of 26cm wide
> Have no captions on the photos
> Have file names including the project name
> Include an exterior shot and interiors
featuring people

Upload thumbnails
For the judges to view online, you also need to
upload thumbnail versions of the same images.
> Size: 800px max width or height along longest edge
> Resolution: 72dpi
> Colour: RGB Colour
> Format: JPEG (.jpg)
 
You could use eazy thumbnail for the smaller pics it will batch resize very quickly, theres no mention of processing the images (colour exposure etc) is that done already?

Ask them to install gimp
 
Thanks guys. In the end I used Piknik to process the pictures slightly (mostly from p&s) and irfanview for the resizing (latter not needing to be installed). It wasn't ideal but it was ok I think. I didn't meet all the criteria they requested but not much I could have done within the time I had and as some of the photos were from a p&s so were small/low dpi.
