PhotoResizerOK

Pictures usually store memories and that is why they are one of our most treasured items on the personal computer. However, many take up a significant amount of storage space, especially if we are talking about RAW images, as captured by professional cameras. To avoid running out of disk space and to facilitate file sharing, you can try to reduce the size of images using a dedicated application, such as PhotoResizerOK.

This particular application provides a 2-in-1 tool for reducing the size of images and changing their format. PhotoResizerOK is fairly easy to use, although it might take a bit of time to get used to it, as there are no menus, as you might be accustomed with.

For instance, to import files for processing, you must look for the “Import” button, which is somewhere located in the middle of the Options tab. PhotoResizerOK enables you to choose an input folder and starts analyzing its contents, extracting all the compatible files and displaying them in an organized table, along with their size. Thumbnail preview is possible, so as to make sure you got the right files.

The application enables you to adjust the compression rate as you please and select one of the compatible output formats: PNG, JPG or BMP. It is possible to preserve the metadata and EXIF information after conversion.

There are additional tools that PhotoResizerOK comes with, which add to its value. For instance, in case you must process a large number of files, you can configure it to shut down the PC or send it to standby mode once the conversion is complete.

There is a watermark tool available, which enables you to overlay a custom multi-line text on top of the images to protect intellectual property.   One feature that makes this application stand from the crowd is related to system integration. You can add it to the system context menu, in the Send-to section for easier and faster access. This way, you can use it to batch resize entire folders of photos without a lot of hassle.

With low impact on the system resources and fast conversion speed, PhotoResizerOK proved to be a good choice when needing a batch image resizer. Take it for a spin to see if it does the job done for you!
