Ever felt the need of resizing all your images into thumbnails or smaller size to put into web pages? Also most of us frequently encounter situation when we need to adjust the brightness, contrast or gamma. More than that, we often find in a situation where we land up doing the same process (enhancement) to group of images but one at a time. And just consider how much efforts, time and energy you put into processing those bunch of images in your disk. The need of the hour is not your efforts or time, but just working with the right software capable of cloning and replicating the same functions and processes defined in one image into thousands of images. All you have to do is deciding what functions you want to apply to the images. That’s something all of us can do. So, no hard work, no need to worry about how different images will look like, thus saves you precious time. (time=$) BatchMany can read 55+ image formats and output all processed images to more than 12+ popular formats with special feature of web optimization. There are more than 80+ functions available to apply to your images. The procedure is simple. You choose your image files from your disk, then define the functions and put it into the Functions Basket. You can set every minute setting of each function and even see the resultant effect right in front you. Each action can be tested on a sample image, so you can see the effect. That’s way you can track how the outputted image is going to look like. Once function definition is done, you choose the destination folder where all the outputted files will be placed. You also define the file format of the resultant file. And all set to go. Just clicking a single button does all for you. So hold a cup of coffee and just relax. Each action can be tested on a sample image, so you can see the effect. Welcome to the magic of batch image processing.
