Shortcut for close without saving?

Is there a shortcut for close without saving? I've doing a book-length project that will have a few thousand jpegs. After I've found the crop I like in the psd file I save it, change the image to size it will be used at, then save it as a jpg and then close the psd document without saving that last change (the reduction in size). It would be nice if I could avoid the "did you really mean to save without changing" dialog box.

    You could record an action of closing a file without saving and then assign a function key as a shortcut.

    You can hold down the "D" key until all the images X out without saving.

    Right before you close your next PSD, start an Action recording. Hit Ctrl+W or Cmd+W then choose "no" when it asks if you'd like to save. Stop the Action recording. Set a shortcut, such as Shift+F3, then use that to close the documents from now on.

    Hope this helps!
