Faster way to img crop....
 

Anyone know of some super fast ways to crop images for thumbnails. Like all images at 120x120 but croped in the prime shot areas?

Right now I have an action in photoshop that cleans the image up, put's the crop tool up with a setting of 120x120 and then I have to click the image to crop it and the action starts again.

Anyone know of a faster way? I have like 80k images to go through so might have to hire some poor sap to do it if their isnt a faster way :)

get ahold of me we have a custom php script that does all this and more for you =)

Hey Doc,

I still haven't heard from Herms.

Have a URL to some scirpt information so I can see what featuers it has? How does it know where to crop the image at so I keep getting the prime shots in?

so basicaly you just need to load your 80k images in and have them all cropped to a certain size? http://www.photodex.com/products/pro/index.html


I don't think you're going to find anything to give each image it's individual crop...never seen anything

If you find a software that can figure out what the prime shot areas should be, post a link. :winkwink:

Exactly :) Or at least something faster than photoshop.

sorry was reading the clean up Doc :winkwink: good show there
i will get my programmer to post a link when he gets back from lunch, the program allows you to on the fly resize images from a directory and then crop them from where ever you think the best spot is, Only down side you have to do it by hand, Depending on how fast your server is or PC if you do it localhost it can go fast if you have the power

I'm up for any way that is faster than photoshop :)

My machine here is super ass fast. Duel 950, a few gigs of ram and all kinds of toys.

heres on stage of the program he has another version that he has been perfecting to handle large amounts of images

How much does this script cost, and what versions of PHP, GD and/or ImageMagick are needed to run it?

right now we are selling this simple script for 30 bucks you need php 4.3 installed and the newest version of GD libs installed

The bigger script to handle mass amounts of images we are selling for 100 dollars, it has more options and toys to play with but i can't seem to find a link to it right now
