ifranview does a great job, but can it also do batches? never noticed that option....

MetaMan · 01-24-2006, 01:15 AM

i use my own custom actions in photoshop, they also maintain the best quality because of the web based saving compression.

Egomancer · 01-24-2006, 01:16 AM

yes it can do batches but it does not preserve the quality of the image (best quality for the jpg).

Now I use Photoshop heavily scripted but even that does not completely automatize the work...

Agree with above...

Hi my name is Photoshop and Imageready... learn the scripting, which is fairly simple... your set.

we batch tons and tons of thumbs in photoshop almost daily, i have a lil custom actions written to add specific changes to thumbs then web base save,

it takes 1 click of a button, alot of people use this option, you just have to set it up properly.

Best little image converting program in my opinion. Been using it for years and love it..

Egomancer · 01-24-2006, 02:21 AM

How can I script the save for the wbe option in Photoshop? we tried a lot and we could not manage that...

Egomancer

ilbb · 01-24-2006, 02:30 AM

Here is one vote for Photoshop too!

V_RocKs · 01-24-2006, 03:03 AM

I use arles (google it) and it works great for resizing...

Just open a file
start recording a new action
do processing
save for web (choose settings)
close file (choose do not save)
stop recording action
done!

now, just open a bunch of files and choose to batch process the opened files. They will all be saved to the dir you choosed above (in save for web screen).

Learn a bit of Perl and ImageMagick by far the most powerful!

Egomancer · 01-24-2006, 06:10 AM

I think I will write my own program to crop and resize, that way everything will work faster...

yup PS is the best its not a small application though

Brad Mitchell · 01-24-2006, 06:28 AM

"Arles" for sure! http://www.digitaldutch.com/arles/

You can also make pages of thumbnails with it and use it to watermark or label your images, too.

This by far is the best tool for the job you talk about. It's multifolder processing also makes your batches a breeze!

Yep. Same here. With actions, you can do it fairly easily. No muss. No fuss.
