Having to hit the “Advanced >” button every time can get rather annoying. However if a user wants to use a custom size, or access any of the other options, he/she will have to click the “Advanced >” button every time. This “basic” mode is nice if a user only wants to make use of the four default sizes.

Whenever a user runs Image Resizer, it always starts off in “basic” mode:.

Image Resizer is definitely a very handy tool but there are two areas where I believe Image Resizer can improve:

The original images can be resized instead of creating a whole new image.

There is an option to make images smaller but not larger.

Users can resize multiple images at once just select multiple images before right clicking.

Other great things about Image Resizer are: This way, the image will not look weird and messed up. In other words, if your image is a 400×200 image and you opt to resize it to the small 640×480 size, the new image will be 640×320 instead of being exactly 640×480 or if you have a 662×527 image and you opt to resize it to the small 640×480 size, the new image will be 602×480 instead of being exactly 640×480. The cool thing about Image Resizer is it keeps the size ratio of your image it will resize your image so the height/width ratio is as close as the original image as possible. The image that is created keeps the same name and same format as the original image except the new image adds a “(Small)”, “(Medium)”, “(Large)”, “(WinCE)”, and “(Custom)” respectively to the end of the name. “Reize Pictures” brings up a small window where users are allowed to select what size they want to resize the image to:Īs you can see from the screenshot, there are four predefined sizes to use and users can input custom sizes if they please.

Image Resizer is a program that allows users to resize images very easily it adds a “Resize Pictures” option in the right-click context menu which users can use whenever they want to resize images: Today, however, I plan on breaking the old habits and switching over to Image Resizer and you will decide to do the same by the end of this post if I do my job properly. However I have been using the Paint.NET method because I am, afterall, a creature of habit and it has been convenient for me.

Yes I know – not a very clever or efficient method to resize images. Up until now whenever I wanted to resize an image I would open up Paint.NET, load the image I want to resize, save it, and go.
