Old Habits Die Hard

I used to post my photos to PeenieWallie, but I really haven't done this for some time, because it's easier to just upload them to facebook. But now, I'm trying to post some photos here as I'd like to post my images from the upcoming trip through Latin America.

Basically, as I recall, there were a few steps in the process:
1) I'd rename the .jpg files based on the EXIF data using IRFanView (described here).
The mask I used is probably like this: $T(%Y_%m_%d-%H":"%M:%S)_$N
2) I'd upload the image files to the website in the appropriate folder (e.g. D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\images2017)
3) I'd create the HTML to display the images using a modified version of the Send To option when you right-click - Send To - Clipboard As Name.

REM ">

OK. I searched through my registry and found this Registry entry [under Software -
Gabriele Ponti - Send To Toys] URLFormatPrefix = ">

But really, I need to do any image resizing locally on the MacBook Air that I'll have with me, not under Windows on the home server PC in Colorado. Because it takes too much time to upload the originals and then resize them after they're uploaded.

Ideally, I'd like to be able to resize the images on the MacBook Air, then upload the down-sized images to the home server, and post them on the website that way.

I see this utility listed as an Apple app that is available:
