Beta testers needed!

[Kinniken]

I'm looking for serious beta-testers for two Mac OS X freewares (available at http://kstudio.fr.st ) and a shareware soon to be done.

The freewares:

Resize! is a small app that resize folders full of pictures in one click. It's not very complex, but it works rather well and any webmaster will tell you it's useful

Image Browser is a program used to view huge pictures - you can download 8000*4000 pictures of the Earth on the website (40000*20000 coming soon!)

Both are available for Mac OS 7 to X and for windows.

In both case, I realy need serious beta-testers, willing to test them extensively! Support freeware creation

I just checked, works for me...

Very very good idea. I'm going to try it now, I run a website.. this could be a VERY handy tool for me.

..Except the thumbnails turn out a larger file size than the originals, and they're 1/4 the original physical size.. I guess I'll need to stick with Photoshop.

-a problem with QT (unlikely if you are running OS X)
-your original pictures were in a low JPEG quality; simply change the quality setting at the bottom of the window
-you left the "create OS 9 previews" box checked; this option add a preview in the res, and when the created pictures are small, it can add a LOT to the size of the final file. Too many people are having problem with that... I will uncheck it by default in the next version.

 

[Ricky]

Okay. I was using OS X, so you know.

 

[Kinniken]

The os 9 previews?

 

[Ricky]

Actually, I believe I turned those off. The quality was set to 40 on the thumbnails.

 

[Kinniken]

did you solve the problem or not in the end?

 

[Ricky]

Nope.

It would help if you could give me a good relationship between the JPEG quality of Photoshop and your thumbnail utility. Such as...

100=12
80=9
...

 

[Kinniken]

but mine is on a scale from 1 to a 100. From that you should be able to determinbate it yourself (ie, if photoshop use a slider from 1 to 20, then photoshop's quality of 10 is 50 in my soft)
