The Images interface allows you to modify and manage images that you saved to your account. This feature includes the following tools:

Thumbnail Converter — Use this tool to create thumbnails from images in a directory and store them in a thumbnails subdirectory.

Convert to an Image Format — Use this tool to convert one image file type to another file type and change the file type of all images in a directory. For example, you can change .jpg files to .png files.

Thumbnailer Converter

Click Thumbnail Converter to create smaller versions of images (thumbnails).

For example, create thumbnails to conserve bandwidth on a photo page, where visitors can view smaller previews of your images before you access the larger ones.
The Thumbnail Converter tool creates a new thumbnails subdirectory within the selected folder.
The system adds the tn_ prefix to thumbnail images' filenames. For example, the system creates the tn_image.png thumbnail image for the image.png file.

Select the directory that contains the images that you wish to convert.
