I know that we can change the size of the thumbnails and the re-sizes.
Is there a module to process the size of the original images once they are uploaded into the albums?

I am concerned about the size of the installation on the server as some of the original images are 5mb or more (I upload the larger ones through ftp and server add to get round the maximum upload size!)

There are nearly 11,000 images so I don't fancy doing it off the server and uploading again.

Any suggestions?

Thanks Dave,

Had a look at that module and it seems to limit the size of the image when it is displayed but the original uploaded file is still 7mb on the server.

Back to the drawing board I think

As far as I know if you upload a 7mb file it will resize it on the server.
Try and see that is what I would have to do anyway.
