PhotoSz

PhotoSz is a straightforward application that allows you to quickly edit a batch of images by applying a few graphic effects, as well as by stamping them with a custom watermark.

It is suited for any user who needs a quick and intuitive way of editing multiple photos at a time, with the possibility to preserve the originals during the process.

However, considering the many choices that the dedicated software market provides in this respect, PhotoSz still requires a lot of work in order to reach the level of its competitors.

It is a good initiative, but needs richer graphic effects (currently, it supports only two: grayscale and transparent border), improvements for the watermark feature (such as the possibility to place it wherever you like, now being restricted to just a few positions) and more advanced filtering rules.

In terms of appearance, PhotoSz is intuitive and user-friendly, hosting a few menus and buttons that quickly get you acquainted with its functions.

The preview feature from the main window doesn’t work (it just displays some sample images instead of yours), however, pressing the little loupe button attached onto it will take you to a separate window where you can visualize the photos before you save them.

You can leave out some of the images in the source folder(s) by defining keyword filters thereby files that contain the specified word(s) in their name will be excluded from the editing process.

More advanced options include the possibility to backup the files before you edit them (although there is a separate button that sets the application to preserve the originals) or to configure the program to ignore files that weigh more than a preset limit.

In a nutshell, PhotoSz could be so much more with a more generous set of effects and more flexible watermark options. The functions it relies on at this point in time are pretty basic and we certainly expect more of it in the future.
