 * Hi, when using bulk optimize is it possible for it to remember whats already 
   optimized so it only does whats needed?

 * If you run the main Bulk Optimize for NextGEN, it has resume capability so that
   it doesn’t have to redo anything if it gets interrupted. However, if you start
   the bulk optimize over again, or do just a single gallery or several galleries
   at once, it has no memory of what was already optimized.
 * This is by design, since the bulk tool is generally only meant to be run once.
   This allows you to change optimization settings, and then re-optimize the images
   afterwards to see if you gain anything.

 * Ok thanks, its just that I add a lot of galleries in bulk and thought it would
   be easier to re-do a bulk optimize instead of doing them individually.
    Theres
   a new plugin based on Nextgen v1.9.13 thats getting developed [http://wordpress.org/plugins/nextcellent-gallery-nextgen-legacy/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/nextcellent-gallery-nextgen-legacy/)
   I’ll see if they can add the hook thats needed to auto optimize the thumbs as
   I’m not ready to upgrade Nextgen with v2 being so unstable.

 * In nextgen 1.9, you should get a link to optimize the thumbs after upload. Once
   you click on that, it will parse just the thumbs of the most recent upload. You
   can also optimize entire galleries at once from the manage galleries screen, 
   and whole pages of images from the manage images area.
