Editor's review of FastStone Photo Resizer
5.0 stars
- "Reliable, free, fast"
If you're looking for a fast, reliable, and free way to convert many images at once, look no further than FastStone Photo Resizer. The program outputs files in the most popular formats, including TIFF, GIF, JPEG, and BMP. Besides its batch-conversion skills, the application also can rename pictures in bulk. This program lacks any sort of fancy image effects, but you can make basic tweaks, including cropping, rotating, resizing, and adjusting certain aspects of an image's color. You'll even find a tool for stamping shots with a watermark.
This utility demonstrated speedy performance in our tests, and we appreciate that its main window can be gussied up with several skins. And since it doesn't cost a dime, we have no problem recommending FastStone Photo Resizer to anyone who often works with large bundles of image files.

Version: FastStone Photo Resizer 2.7
Pros: Pretty fast and straight forward.
Cons: A bit tricky selecting the image, but after the first time, it's learned forever. So it's not a big con.
Summary: You gotta at least try this little wonder. I only used this program on one photo, and it worked just fine. It's not sophisticated, but that's what makes it so great. The photo I used was a pic of a newspaper front page. While I still couldn' read mo... read more >>
