An excellent tool that has saved me loads of time is the free Faststone image viewer, which allows you to bulk select and auto rotate. This was one of those tasks I just couldn’t find a reliable (stable) free solution too and has saved me hours of manual changes!

What feeds get selected by users, which ones don’t, how do they really effect SEO and page rank?

The first step however is making it apparent you have it on your site, these icons are a useful start.
