Shrink Pic now works under Windows Vista
Today’s high resolution digital cameras produce multi Megabyte photos. These are great for printing but cause a heavy burden when sending over the Internet. Shrink Pic allows you to send dozens of photos as email attachments – quickly and with no effort at all!
All you need to do is install Shrink Pic. It automatically detects when you’re sending large photo files and compresses them in the background. There’s no setup, no operating instructions, nothing, nada. Just send your photos normally and Shrink Pic takes care of shrinking them. Shrink Pic runs in the background. It has a taskbar icon which tells you it’s waiting for photos to be sent.
Then, when it detects that you’re sending a large photo, it automatically creates a temporary copy, resizes it and sends it instead. It gives you a notice message, so you’ll know the photo you sent was resized. Of course, the original photo doesn’t change, only the temporary copy.
You can control how Shrink Pic resizes your photos. Select between three automatic resize levels or enter your own custom sizes. Shrink Pic also recognizes rotated photos (portrait layout) and resizes them intelligently, so you don’t need to worry about that too.
