Hi,  
I need help for a small not-really-related-to-mp3tag task that people have surely already encountered :

I'd like to add albumart to mp3s. More precisely :

- my music folder has a depth = 1 (no artist/album, just plain artist [year] album)
- every folder contains a nice folder.jpg  
Fine, isn't it ? So I just have to create a new Action saying "Import cover from file folder.jpg".

Yep but, and this is my question, I'd like to include 300_300px_jpgquality75 -or less- album art. Don't want to see filesizes multiplied by 2...  
Does anybody knows a nice utility/script/magical trick to do this easily ?

Thanks for your help !
