Batch re-sizing images?

What's the best freeware to download and use?

Well the software, Batchit is a pretty cool app that allows you to do multiple things. It's not free ... you get a free trial of 20 days or something ... unlimited features etc. But to be honest... it's cheap as hell to buy when the trial is up and I bet it'd be immensely useful to webmasters.

It's free and works great, been using it for years on fast jobs. It's actually better than some of the paid softwares I have.

I like thumbs plus, but I'm a creature of habit...it's shareware but you can use it forever if you deal with the delay screen after 30 days.

Don't have PS on this machine and I can't seem to find my disc. I have over a gig worth of images to resize and just wanted to download something to use real quick without burning these images to another drive and pulling them on to the other machine :(

Downloaded irfanview but it looks like it degrades the image quality and the way it set the destination folder I requested it to use is very odd to me.

Guess I need to fiddle with the settings and download thumbs plus and arles to see which work easiest/best!

Thanks all :)

Personally I use the image resizer from Windows Power Toys
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx

It loads itself into my right click menu, so I don't have to open anything to resize images :)

Just did 40,000 images with this and loved it. Liked that it kept the directory structure intact and watermarks them all as it does. Now if they'd only add an ftp option I could set it up and go to bed and wake up to find my work done!

PHP/GD FTW

Code:

function create_thumbnail( $source_file, $destination_file, $max_dimension)

{

   list($img_width,$img_height) = getimagesize($source_file); // Get the original dimentions

   $aspect_ratio = $img_width / $img_height;

  

   if ( ($img_width > $max_dimension) || ($img_height > $max_dimension) ) // If either dimension is too big...

   {

       if ( $img_width > $img_height ) // For wide images...

       {

           $new_width = $max_dimension;

           $new_height = $new_width / $aspect_ratio;

       }

       elseif ( $img_width < $img_height ) // For tall images...

       {

           $new_height = $max_dimension;

           $new_width = $new_height * $aspect_ratio;

       }

       elseif ( $img_width == $img_height ) // For square images...

       {

           $new_width = $max_dimension;

           $new_height = $max_dimension;

       }

       else { echo "Error reading image size."; return FALSE; }

   }

   else { $new_width = $img_width; $new_height = $img_height; } // If it's already smaller, don't change the size.

  

   // Make sure these are integers.

   $new_width = intval($new_width);

   $new_height = intval($new_height);

  

   $thumbnail = imagecreatetruecolor($new_width,$new_height); // Creates a new image in memory.



   // The following block retrieves the source file.  It assumes the filename extensions match the file's format.

   if ( strpos($source_file,".gif") ) { $img_source = imagecreatefromgif($source_file); }

   if ( (strpos($source_file,".jpg")) || (strpos($source_file,".jpeg")) )

   { $img_source = imagecreatefromjpeg($source_file); }

   if ( strpos($source_file,".bmp") ) { $img_source = imagecreatefromwbmp($source_file); }

   if ( strpos($source_file,".png") ) { $img_source = imagecreatefrompng($source_file); }

  

   // Here we resample and create the new jpeg.

   imagecopyresampled($thumbnail, $img_source, 0, 0, 0, 0, $new_width, $new_height, $img_width, $img_height);

   imagejpeg( $thumbnail, $destination_file, 100 );

  

   // Finally, we destroy the two images in memory.

   imagedestroy($img_source);

   imagedestroy($thumbnail);

}

You can even loop through all the files in a directory real easily to mass resize an unlimited number of items.

arles is tight, but honestly ... and this is just my preference, but most applications, especially free ones... rape the quality of a picture... Im a little anal though about quality content...

so I resort to Photoshop and hand doing it or at least an action... I understand your dilema, ... just my thoughts on the subject

Fuck Pixelation!

Photoshop. Just set up an action, run it, walk away and do other shit... :thumbsup

If you are going to do it serverside, then at least use ImageMagick. It produces better quality thumbs than GD, has more options and has all the functionality of you code and much much more built in to a few reasonably simple command line programs.

oh hell

I just open up flash and grab a gun. Then I draw a rectangle in a layer above the layer where the pics are and pump 10 rounds into my foot. Then I convert the rectangle layer to a mask layer, select the scale resize tool while holdin shift to scale the image down while maintaining the height and width ratios. Then I convert it to a button and set the action script to:
on (release){
make life difficult();
}

and voila...
