I bought a well known brand of Photo optimiser with fancy algorithm for increasing picture size (which works well ) but the photo reduction function produced dotted lines instead of fine straights near the vertical and horizontal, not like the good old free Windows Paint software photo reduction (5gB to about 400 kB picture size). Check this software for fine lines?

Hi, when I resize photos I'm much more interested in quality of ENLARGED picture, as that is much harder to achieve! Seeing this Program's promise:
'With Black Bird Image Optimizer - you can REDUCE the size of your photos without quality loss!' - simply makes me laugh. To make image smaller by percentage, or any other method is so, so easy! If what you see afterwards looks somewhat less perfect than original - apply slight sharpness and voile!?

Seriously, there is so many (paid or free) Photo Software on the market that do batch resize, if needed, and do it well that something that works solely online (where you have limited 'operational control' of adjustments before you're completely happy to post your pics elsewhere) - seems pointless. At least to anyone who is serious about sharing quality photos in e-mails (yes, people still use that most private way of sharing photos with family members and friends!..) or online.

Looks to me - Black Bird Image Optimizer is another of these offers for.. 'people in a hurry' and those who use smaller screens of smart phones more than PCs or even Tablets? Hence the attraction - light, fast, and 'who cares about quality anyway'.. Nope, not interested, sorry. Not even for free(..for 1 year!:)

I installed the program, registered with provided serial number.

I would NOT INSTALL and use this program for several reasons:

1) It is nagging you to BUY THEIR STUFF after registration! I HATE THAT!!!
2) IT IS ON THE WEB APPLICATION - I hate that, SINCE i MUST upload my pictures I hate that even more!!!!!
3) The resulting image is WORSE than my original shot!
4) The size of the screen is SMALL - and I can't resize it - I HATE THAT DOUBLE TIMES 4!
5) You can't do much with this program - don't even install this TIME WASTER!
6) If you want to run a BATCH - you must pay them more $$$ (they LIMIT batch to 20 pictures! USELESS!!!! )

I hate a company that is giving you something WITH LOTS OF LIMITATIONS!!!!!

I gave this one a try. I took a 3.2MB JPG (4000x3000px) and compressed it down to 980kB. Then I used Faststone Image Viewer (which is freeware) and also compressed the image down to 980kB. I compared the results - and didn't see any visual difference! So, this one-trick pony doesn't justify its price (to me). Maybe there's a use case that does - I don't know.

This will be useful for me. If I'm taking pictures of items to sell online, I need smaller images. I won't need to open either of my professional programs (On1 2017 Raw or Exposure X2).

If you're not satisfied with this one, try the freeware "FILEminimizer Pictures" by Balesio.

I'm only using its less agressive compression mode, in order to retain as much detail as possible.

Ioannis, I found it in portable mode,is it real good patrida??

Reply | Comment by beizanis – 7 years ago – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (-3)

I would not trust downloading & using the "portable" version – it's unautorized, and Bitfender blocked the download-link to a Deceptive Site!

Balesio offers FILEminimizer Pictures for $0.00 so that they have a platform to advertise for their FILEminimizer Suite (the user gets to see a nagging pop-up reminder each time he/she opens the "... Pictures" variant). This is legitimate. Without an Internet connection (= OFF) the programme starts straight away.

Download it only from here

I don't have much time now but I'll let you (and any other interested party) into my personal *secret* in how I work on images, and “How to make happy & amaze friends and family members.

From the plethora of photo processing apps stored in my PC, those mostly used are Paint.NET and FILEminimizer Pictures. Say I receive a holliday picture shot by a dear person, "dear" referring to why I should bother to try to improve their photograph.

1. Open the JPG in Paint.NET (it's freeware). Save that untouched image in either BMP format or PNG.
2. Import the new file in one of the specific photo processing software, where I apply any changes.
3. If I need to do further manipulation in another programme, I save the result w/ a new name (often just adding a number)
4. In any case, when satisfied, I save my semi-final image both as BMP(/PNG) and JPG.
5. ONLY if the JPG file is too large: I resort to using FILEminimizer Pictures, and so-called Optimize in "Low / Print Compression"; even this *best* mode often goes too far, for my taste (artefacts and/or bleached out colours).
6. Is the result acceptable, then I'm done. If not, I move on to the ultimate magic trick:
7. In Paint.NET I open both the last saved BMP(/PNG) and minimized JPG, having checked the latter's weight in KB/MB.
8a. Using Paint.NET's Layers option I sandwich one image on top of the other, till the percentage of this mix seems OK.
8b. I save the newly created JPG with a quality factor (file size) well above that of that peviously minimized JPG.

Have a wondefully pleasant Sunday.

Ioannis, Thanks a lot for the details, i didn't have any problem with my antivirus for the portable version though. Have fun and thanks again.

I develop websites and deal with a load of images and the need to resize images for optimisation. This product works well and compares very favourably with other image optimisation tools. I use FastStone Resizer a lot and Blackbird does a great job...Thanks

Download and registered without an issue, Optimized a batch of pictures for a website. Original size 103.6K, optimized 229.2k. Original 242.9k, optimized 702.5k. Was hoping for smaller image files for website. Not for me, sorry.

[ @BRIE ], the BlackBird program window is NOT resizable ( BAD BAD BAD programming ), so move your taskbar, [ Activate ] is below where you can see.

Also try changing resolution and font sizes on your display, or plug in an external display.

Programmers haven't figured out that we have different display sizes, drivers, font sizes, resolutions, and so on, and they need to put all control information in the upper left 10% of their window ...

... AND the need to make their windows resizable.

How many times have we told programmers this, and still nothing?

I can't get an image to load without it freezing up. Seems like junk to me.

Reply | Comment by rob – 7 years ago – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+26)

rob, I did work on a Win10-64 Pro.
I also read something about .NET Framework 4.0
I could register the software and also load images, alos batch.
A few examples:

Reply | Comment by Adrian – 7 years ago – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (-2)

This whole optimization is just an image quality changing, which can be done by re-saving image and there is free utilities that can do this in batch.
