Not exactly what you asked for but using MacroMaker in
conjunction with IrfanView will automagically do this. Your post
got me to give it a try and sure einough, it works very well.
You just have to setup IrfanView to save and load in the right
folders and then just use MacroMaker to write a script based on
using IrfanView with the keyboard only. All the steps you would
perform manually are done automatically and obviously much
faster. IrfanView is great for this because of its keyboard and
commandline support. Your machine might choke if you have too
many files. I couldn't do much more than 800 small jpg's at a
time without a crash. I think this is because after you get too
many files in a folder, windows takes a long time to open the
save dialog. So I just modified the script to do only a few
hundred at a time.
