#! /bin/sh

convert 'family 007.jpg' -thumbnail 100x100 './tmp/family 007.jpg'
convert 'family 009.jpg' -thumbnail 100x100 './tmp/family 009.jpg'
convert 'family 011.jpg' -thumbnail 100x100 './tmp/family 011.jpg'
convert 'family 012.jpg' -thumbnail 100x100 './tmp/family 012.jpg'
convert 'family 185.jpg' -thumbnail 100x100 './tmp/family 185.jpg'

A bit of shell scripting will suffice.

Code:

for file in *.jpg; do convert "$file" -thumbnail 100x100 "./tmp/$file"; done
