Editor's review of Free Picture Resize Starter

• "Resize and optimize"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: Free Picture Resize Starter 4.5.12

This program aims not just to resize images but to optimize them for particular purposes. Picture Resize's interface looks welcoming, and the minimal help displays right in the interface. A pull-down list lets you resize images to make them suitable for e-mailing, burning to a photo disc, displaying in an instant-messenger program, or publishing online. The Make It Fit utility helps you find image parameters that will create a file of a specific size.

The program also helps you instantly resize multiple files. You can set the Custom option easily, though apparently you can't edit the presets. However, you will find a built-in image editor with basic features, such as drawing tools and a rotation utility. The included tools for creating slide shows and icons are fairly basic, but we consider them nice bonuses.

Folks looking for an easy-to-use image-resizing application with a few useful extras should give this one a try.

  "Fantastic for ipod images"

  by ChicSpandex on April 6, 2008

  Pros: You can resize (and rotate) thousands of images of all sizes to the exact requirements of your image viewer (e.g. ipod) to save memory. It's very fast and easy with this program.

  Cons: Very little not to like. The first bulk operation window does not make clear how to resize, but just click continue. As always, test on a copied sample to make sure you don't overwrite important files (which you should have backed up anyway).

  "Excellent novice software"

  by sleepeeg3 on March 19, 2008

  Pros: Straightforward and almost all the core features you need for batch resizing your cameras photos. Options for quality, name, folder, file type, file size and even filters!

  Cons: The one key thing that is missing is the ability to resize by a percentage! For images that are taken in portrait mode (longer vertically), if you are using a pre-defined resolution, the program uses the lower resolution as the basis for the height and keeps the aspect ratio by selecting an even lower resolution. So while the height is the same, the quality is a lot less for portrait mode shots. (i.e. 1280 x 960 -> 720 x 960 instead of 960 x 1280

  by jlehane3 on March 30, 2009

  Pros: SimpleBasicFunEasy2use.I caution everyone Save extra copy of your original&If handy,each step along the way. It's worthExtra time to be able to choose from different sizes.I have been slammed with size limits before unexpectedly & neededSmaller .

  Cons: Gun to my head" NOPE,pretty good."

  Summary: I really love that you can get quality simple programs like this that teach you while you work and train you for the bigger clunky complex dinosaur programs with so many un-needed features that they overwhelm a NOOB.It's frustrating when the choices... read more >>
