Very Slick Image Resizer

SteveA · 08-21-2011, 07:06 AM

I found this very slick little app for resizing pics and wanted to share it.

It sits on your desktop, and all you need to do is drag the "over sized" image to the desktop app and drop it in the box labeled #1, select the output size from a simple drop down menu and the image appear in the box labeled #2 all ready to go.

I used it through the 30 free day trail and decided to buy it. Worth the $29 bucks for the convenience of a simple resize for an image I want to post, or email to someone. You can even drag an image file directly from from an e-mail to the "Quick Image Resize" Icon on your desk top, it will open the program and resize the image in a matter of seconds. (Great feature to have when someone sends you an e-mail with a pic attached that is way oversized)

The selection of image sizes are clearly labeled and self explanatory.

Don, I wonder if this is something that could be "licensed" an made part of Winni.com ? I'd chip in to help pay for it, and I bet lot's of others would to.

There are many free image resizers that are just as good as the one you posted.

I agree, there are a bunch of them. When I have a number of files to resize, like when I'm resizing 70 or 80 pictures from our camera I use:

Great free batch resizer and free.

The one I posted is really best for that time when you want a simple resize of just a few pics, plus it is so easy to use with the drag and drop features. many folks struggle with the whole resizing process. This is dirt simple.
