Members wadeh Posted January 29, 2009 Members Report Posted January 29, 2009 I realize that this thread is about a year old but the program irfanview is not free anymore or at least when I went to the link it wanted to charge me to download the program. Not that is was real expensive, just wanted to let people that I could not get it free. Quote

BobHall Posted February 10, 2009 Report Posted February 10, 2009 I have been looking at buying Photo Shop to help me work with my digital photos. That seems to be the program most talk about when they want to reduce the file size, crop, change or work with photos. I have a photo program that came with my computer but it does not let me reduce the file size. I try to set my camera to take reduced file size when I know that I may email or download to my website but sometimes I forget then I have a time trying to figure it out or just retake the photo. Photo Shop is about 80.00 and the price is not that expensive for me but I thought I would ask if there is another program out there that is better, cheeper or free. Thanks Randy I realize this is an old topic, but there may be someone who needs similar info. I've used PhotoShop for years. I've tried other applications but PhotoShop is definitely the best. You CAN change file size, and anything else for that matter, with full-blown PhotoShop. I may be going out on a limb here, but I'd be happy to help others who have questions about using the software.

hidepounder Posted February 13, 2009 Report Posted February 13, 2009 I've used PhotoShop Elements for some time. It's a great program! There is learning curve as someone else mentioned, but I can't imagine needing anything more comprhensive unless you are a professional! It does way more than most of us technically challenged leather workers are capable of using. I've found it's great for making "catalog" pages of your work which is easily reduced in size so that you can e-mail professional looking photo's of your work. Mine include descriptions of the piece, available options, pricing, contact information, the whole can of worms! I keep these photo's in a file and can re-send them to anyone...anytime. Bob Quote
