Free Softwares for Realtors---IrfanView (picture viewer and editor)

Mon, 25 Aug 2008 09:04:13 -0500

There are many free picture viewing softwares that people can use. But not anyone can beat this one: IrfanView:

I have been using digital camera since 2001 and used many picture viewing softwars. Including ACDSee, Adobe album, etc. But nothign beats this one. Features that I like:

1, Super lightweight and fast.

These days, many softwares try to help you do everything in one package. Just like microsoft and peoplesoft (I hate peoplesoft). But everybody knows you are good at a few things.

This software only does what it can do. Nothing more, nothing less. In my IBM X60s laptop, everytime I click the icon, it opens up right away. In my old ibm X24. The same thing.

2, quick resize, rotate and crop.

You can quickly resize and crop your pictures in lighting speed.

3, the best part: you can automate your tasks.

I sometime have lots of pictures and want to uplod them to my website. They are big. I have to resize each of them and then create a thumbnail for each of them.

I just create a batch action on a whole folder. This software will do the job automatically on each Picture in MY WHOLE FOLDER.

You want to try with Photoshop? Best of luck. Not only it is slow, but it may crash your machine if your folder is hugh.

4, this software is very small.

Softwares have become big and big. Windows Vista is now a big dvd. But this software is only barely over 1Meg.

There are many good things about this software. Try it out. You will like it.

Land has been in a stand still in South Kingston. I'm encouraging my clients to invest here, it's a great place for tourism and housing. I love to visit this area. I've talked with some members of the chambers of commerce their and the area seems to be on the role to economic development. There are also many employment opportunities as well. Truly a great area.

I like to do business in the South Kingstown area because of the great property values. I love when I refer people here and they come back pleased of what they find this city has to offer. It has a great location with access to some beautiful beaches. Even though it is the largest town in Washington county, it still has a nice small town feel.
