Picture Organizer

Images are usually difficult to manage and organize, due to their automatically generated names that are given by the camera used to capture them. The same is true for photos taken off the Internet, since they are also renamed by scripts for database purposes. Renaming them one by one can be a daunting task, especially for larger collections.

Picture Organizer is a software application designed to lend you a helping hand, by allowing you to automatically rename entire image folders at once, as well as perform various other operations on them. Thus, you are able to copy or move the items from one directory to another, as well as remove duplicate items and manually choose which file extensions to take into consideration.

The entire procedure can be set up from a single, main window, where all the parameters can be introduced. Beside the source folder, you can also choose the desired output directory, where the newly edited documents can be placed after they are properly organized and renamed according to your specifications.

Although the utility is advertised as a picture organized, it is not limited to images only, since it is able to handle various video formats as well. Among them, you can find some of the most popular movie extensions, including WMV, MP4 and AVI. By selecting them, you force the application to process them along with the detected photos, which can sport the JPG, PNG or TIFF format.

In case you have other type of extensions residing in the selected directory that you wish to process, you can manually include them as well. Thus, you can create custom filters for your own formats, by separating the extensions with a comma. The filter can be quickly turned on and off from inside the application, in case you want to disable it for certain operations.

In the end, Picture Organizer manages to fit quite a few features into its lightweight user interface, which can be of great help when you are dealing with a large number of images. The simplicity translates into a very intuitive and easy-to-use environment, which can accommodate every user category, regardless of previous experience.
