ImageConvert

ImageConvert is a simple-to-use app with a self-explanatory name - it allows you to change the format of images into PNG, JPG, GIF, BMP, ICO, TIFF and WMF.

This is a portable program, so installing ImageConvert is not necessary. It means that you can place the tool on a removable device (like a USB flash drive) and directly run its executable file on any computer. More importantly, there will be no changes made to the Windows registry entries.

The interface of the application is plain and simple. Image files can be imported into the list by using only the folder view, since the "drag and drop" function is unsupported. It is possible to process more than one item simultaneously.

In the file queue you can check out the name and format of each picture. Once you have selected the output extension, you can initialize the conversion procedure with the default settings.

Skilled users can change the size of images, flip and rotate them, adjust the quality, as well as apply a filter (black and white, grayscale). Plus, you can convert all or only selected pictures, specify a percentage for resizing, as well as set ImageConvert to retain the aspect ratio and to keep or delete the original items.

The picture processing app requires a low amount of system resources, has a good response time, quickly finishes a task and delivers a good image quality after conversion. No errors have occurred throughout our testing and ImageConvert did not freeze or crash.

On the other hand, there is no help file available and the interface is outdated. Plus, you cannot specify the output directory (images are automatically converted in the same place as the source directory) or import individual pictures by using a file browser.
