FastStone Image Viewer

Welcome! I would like to share  my experiences with you.  There are several applicatiosn that I use daily and I can’t live without. Most of them and free. One of them is Fastone Image Viewer.It has an interface similar to Windows Explorer, so it is very easy  to use by any Windows capable person.It displays  all folders and you can see small thumbnails  of photos and images.  You can batch resize and rename, crop, rotate… and so much more that you will be amazed at its capabilities. A very useful tool for a blogger that needs small images to upload in an instant.

 I have just discovered -as I write-  that It can also grab a screen shot and save it to file, memory or to Image Viewer! It’s #22 on the list.  I have not used most of the features, since they are so many, but I am sure I will use most of  them in my daily work.  Here is the capture I made  while editing this entry. Superb!

 Quoting from the program’s Help, here is what ist does in a nutshell: 

  1. True Full Screen viewer with image zoom support and unique fly-out menu panels
  2. Crystal-clear and customizable one-click image magnifier
  3. Superior Red-Eye effect removal/reduction with completely natural looking end result
  4. Image modification tools: Resize/resample, rotate/flip, crop, sharpen/blur, brightness/contrast, etc. 
  5. Eleven (yes, 11) resampling algorithms to choose from when resizing images
  6. And much more…
