What I want to do is resize all of the JPGs in a long and ramified
directory tree.  I figured something like:

find . -name *.jpg

in the top of the tree would do the trick for hitting all of the jpgs,
but I don't know how to take the output of the above and have it do
this:

convert $FILENAME -resize 425 $FILENAME

Basically, I don't know bash very well and need help with the syntax.
Thanks.

yours,

William
