Click on the File menu, select Batch Conversion/Rename. A dialog allows you 
to select a directory from which the files will be taken. Use Look in,  File 
name, and Files of type to limit the search.

Select the output directory at bottom right.  If you don't have the full 
path for this directory, click the Browse button to find it. When you have 
selected a directory with Browse, find a directory and click the OK button.

You can set the current directory as output directory if you press the Use 
this directory as output button.

If you want to include all images from sub-directories, check the Include 
subdirectories option.
Batch Conversion:
Select the Output Format at bottom left. This works just like Save and Save 
As. The Options button lets you choose various operations to perform, also 
just like their Save and Save As versions.

Use the Advanced Options button to apply many special operations to the 
images during conversion. These options are much like their versions on the 
Image menu. The options are:

Crop, Resize, Insert text, Change color depth, Horizontal flip, Vertical 
flip, Rotate left, Rotate right, Convert to greyscale

Just as a side note: For images you intend to archive or to use later, 
JPEG is a bad choice.

JPEG works by deliberately degrading the quality of the image in order 
to make the file size smaller. It is intended for situations where file 
size is important and image quality is not important.

This degredation is cumulative and irreversible. If you open one of your 
JPEGs, make any changes to it, and save it as JPEG again, the image is 
degraded even more, and the quality goes down. Make additional changes 
and re-save it and the quality is degraded still more.

For images where you care about quality, especially images you intend to 
archive for future use, save in a format that is not degraded, such as 
TIFF.
