Not always the size of images corresponds to the desired one, good now has the opportunity to change it without much effort using special programs. Most often they have an additional functionality that allows you to edit photos. In this article we will analyze several representatives of such software, consider a variety of programs that perfectly copble with the task of changing images.
Pruning photos
The name of the first representative displays its entire functionality. Developed by "trimming photos" exclusively for these purposes, offers quickly and easily cut or resize any image. All actions occur in one window, and the process itself is easy and will be understood even to inexperienced users.
It is worth noting that this program is not suitable for work immediately with multiple files, only in turn, but a little speed up the process will help the ability to use templates. You only need to specify the parameters once once, and then they will apply to all loaded pictures.
Paint.net.
A slightly improved version of a friend to all owners of the Windows operating system - Paint. This program has added a number of functions that will help in working with images. Thanks to the innovations of paint.net, you can consider a full and convenient graphical editor, which is also capable of performing photo trimming feature.
Working with layers is supported, but here you will not be able to download multiple files and cut them at the same time, only every one in turn. In addition to the usual trimming there is a proportional tool to resize, which will help in some situations.
Picasa.
Picasa is a program from a well-known to many Google users who already inspire confidence. Picasa is not just a program to view photos, it interacts with social networks, recognizes individuals and offers tools with which images are edited.
Separately, I would like to note the possibility of sorting photos - this is one of the important differences of this representative. The main emphasis was made precisely on this feature. With the help of an organizer, sorting according to various parameters, which allows you to quickly see certain pictures, even if they are saved in different folders.
Photoscape.
Photoscape has a large set of features and tools. The program provides almost everything that will be needed to circumcise photos and not only. It was pleasantly surprised by batch editing, which will be very useful during the pruning photos. You just specify one parameter and select a folder with files, and the program itself will do everything, and as a result, the processing does not take much time.
In addition, there is a tool for creating GIF animation. It is implemented quite conveniently and easy to use. Photoscape is distributed free of charge, which is another huge dignity, and is available for download on the official website of the developers.
Resize Images
This program was created by one domestic developer exclusively for trimming photos. There is a batch editing, you only need to specify a directory with files, and the program scans it and select suitable images. Settings here are not much: the width is selected, the height of the picture and one of the two types of processing.
Unfortunately, at the moment, the developer is no longer engaged in Resize images and new versions, most likely no longer come out, so hope for some innovations meaningless. However, it is worth noting the excellent implementation of the present functional.
Photo editor
Photo Editor - a full-fledged photo processing program. It will help edit the color, size and add different effects to choose from. You can play a little with persons using a caricature tool. As for the cropping of pictures, PHOTO Editor is perfectly coping with this task and even has the possibility of batch editing.
In addition, the program offers color editing tools, horizon levels, red-eye removal and sharpness setting. Photo editor is available for free on the official website, but there is no Russian localization.
Gimp.
GIMP is a free graphics editor, on board which there is a large number of tools and features for drawing and image processing. Gimp is suitable for both home use by lovers and professionals. There is support for the layers, which will be useful while working with complex projects.
No packet editing, since the main function of the program is not pruning photos. Of the minuses, you can mark poorly implemented with text and too downloaded interface, which may cause misunderstanding for inexperienced users.
BIMAGE STUDIO.
This representative is suitable exclusively for pruning photos, but some pleasant additions are available. For example, a small image color editor. Moving the slider, the user can configure brightness, contrast and gamut. There is still an adding watermarks, which will help protect the image from copying and make it copyrighted.
Altarsoft photo editor
Altarsoft Photo Editor is a simple graphic editor with a minimum set of functions. There is nothing such that it would allocate this representative from a dozen other similar programs. However, as a free option for users who do not need many tools, Photo Editor may exist.
It adds photo editing, adding inscriptions, effects and filters. In addition, there is a screen capture, but this function is implemented very badly, images are low quality.
Riot.
The main task of the RIOT program is to compress photos to reduce their weight. This is done by changing the quality, format or size. Packet processing is also present, which will help save a huge amount of time. You only need to select the settings once once, and they will apply to all specified files. Riot is distributed for free and is available for download on the official website.
In this article, we have disassembled a list of programs that offer users a function of cropping images. Some representatives are graphic editors, some were created specifically to perform this operation. They are different and at the same time similar, and the choice depends only on the user.
