There is an easy way to do resizing of a bulk of images after you're done working with them. Here's what (from memory, don't have the programme here):

1. Open the Photoshop browser Adobe Bridge in the right top corner (IIRC A file icon with a magnifying glass?)
2. While in Bridge open the picture folder and select the images you want reduced. Press CTRL while clicking to select several separate images.
3. Go to file menu (IIRC 3. row from left, I'll find this when I get home) and Photoshop>Image Processing
4. Select the folder in which you wish to place new and reduced images. The program will make a new folder here simply called "JPEG".
5. Select size of images. 800 or 900 width will do nicely.
6. Select quality, 70% will give you images around 80-90kb. I find this feature compresses pictures quite heavily, more than what you'd get by chosing 70% while using "save for web" in CS2.
7. Finish it off by pressing the uh... shaded button. The pictures will be opened in CS2 and processed while you're watching.

This has saved me lots of work lately. Of course you can add an action, like a Copyright Name at the bottom, and whoom, you're done.
