Depending on the ls you use (and any aliases which may be present), I
recommend the following change:

for x in `/bin/ls -A1`; do mogrify -resize 33% $x; echo Done converting $x;
done;

/bin/ls invokes the binary itself, independent of aliases. The -1 shows you
ONLY the filenames in a single-column list, and the -A refers to all files
except the inherent . and .. entries.
