Resizer 1.1 - New and Improved

I guess it comes as no surprise that when you use half an hour to throw together an application, it won't come across as all that polished. In creating Resizer I failed to miss what was actually a very important feature when creating pictures for uploading to Flickr. The image service has some very neat features for presenting some of the EXIF information embedded in the image by the camera, including such stats as camera model, exposure time, and ISO. My app just copied the image itself and accidentally ended up discarding all the meta data. Oops.

As other small issues had appeared I figured that I might as well fix them all up and publish the new version.

Version 1.1 changelog:

  • Option for copying all meta data to new image.
  • Button for setting the active directory to the app directory.
  • Fixed issue where the jpg extension had to be all lowercase.
  • Options used are now saved and automatically carried over between each use of the app.

As before, you can get the source code to play around with here. If you don't want to compile the code yourself you can get the binary here. Enjoy.
