IrFanView – Image Batch Processor
My SP500UZ Olympus camera default setting is at 2816 x 2112 pixels. Most of the time, the pictures are taken from events and seminars. I can take hundreds of random pictures as long as my 2 sets of batteries permit. But then, I find it time consuming to resize the pictures to be suitable for emailing or posting on blogs for others to see.
Another issue and very time-consuming when managing the images is renaming to be easily identifiable. (I was renaming my files before through a DOS program REN or RENAME). So, I just digitally archive the images unretouched and unedited.
Naturally, I searched for program to simplify such tedious work but maybe, I was searching for the wrong term. Some of the programs I encountered can do batch resizing but can only resize a maximum of 100 x 100 pixels. Then, renaming should be done manually.
Then, while downloading some applications, IrFanView was mentioned in one of the comments so I checked the website and downloaded it. I can literally resize and rename in one operation a batch of hundreds of pictures in just a few minutes. Not to mention I can specify the size I want, rename and even automatically include numbering my pictures. Once the operation is started, I can leave it to work and I can do other things while waiting for the operation to be finished.
Aside from batch resizing and renaming, batch cropping of images and placing of overlay text is also possible. If you want to place copyright notice to your hundreds of images, then IrFanView can easily do the job.
I know that IrFanView can not replace other image editing tools like Adobe Photoshop but I am just glad that IrFanView has solved my problem when it comes to batch renaming and resizing images.
Aside from the above-mentioned features, IrFanView has other features that you can test for yourself such as multi-language support, lossless JPG operations, painting, slideshow, toolbar skins, fast directory browsing, batch conversion/editing, multipage editing, file search, change color depth, scanning, cut/crop, capturing, effects, ICC support, EXE/SCR creating, many hotkeys, command line options and plugin
And do not worry, it is free to download for personal use.

Have you ever been in a big city and wondered what it would be like to revisit the city if you were rich? What it would be like to have so much money that it didn’t matter how the hotels, dinners and various little expenses were? It certainly is a big change when you go from pinching pennies to living a lifestyle that parallels the rich and famous. Let me tell you, this can be a reality for you. Just follow in my footsteps. There are countless details to this system that I propose for you so I won’t even attempt to get into all the details right here. The only that I will tell you is that if you do decide to change your life with this program, make sure that you do so through the Cash411 team. They are under an even larger group and when you combine the help that you will get from both groups, you will be getting a combination that adds up to many thousands of dollars in bonuses. Like I said, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to change your tax bracket and you owe it to yourself to at least give it a look
