Freeware program to resize images, change brightness and gamma, rename...etc.

[Anonymous]

I just found a freeware image converter/resizer intended to enable
users to convert, rename, resize, crop, rotate, change color depth,
change brightness, hue and gamma, add text and watermarks to masses of
images quickly.

It is called FSResizer from http://www.faststone.org/

Has anyone heard of this program before? Have you used it?
Do you know of any other freeware programs that will perform these
functions?

Thanks!

Functions very well, with batch mode, many options which can be selected
together : use it very often !
In my view, for that use ( batch editing of many fils) works better and
easier than Irfanview

it's a little slower on the test folder I used, 170Mb of files - 2550 images
in total but the results were similar enough that I couldn't call one better
...

irfanview managed it in about half the time, but hey, they both still beat
the pants off many 'professional' imaging programs where it seems time taken
to do a task is irrelevant

I had the program:
resize to 300 pixels max
rotate 90 degrees
brightness 1.01
gamma 1.20
add text: "sample" times new roman 10
(black on white) placed 0,0 bottom right


time for resizer:7:46
time for irfanview: 3:16

note that irfanview dropped some images (13 of them) - why, I have no idea..

Okay, I've loaded and throughly checked out both FSResizer and
Irfanview.

They are both good programs---but I'm keeping Ifranview.

I had earlier other program drop some files that were "larger" then the
others : have you checked size of those Irfanview dropped ?

Hi Everyone,

I just picked up version 3.98 and tested it on a folder with 110 images
that range from 25,000 to 600,000 bytes in size. I changed their name,
resized them to half-normal, and changed their gamma and brightness.

Ifranview didn't miss any or drop any of the images.

I have 3.92
But the problem also appeared using an exif-based renaming utility demo :
all big jpegs were not renamed. And I also have had the same problem when I
build my firts photo-CD slide-show : all "bigger" jpegs didn't appear.
So it seems many programs have a problem with big jpegs ( mine were higher
definition photos I had taken with my digital camera)
Try reducing a little their size.
