Title: PHOTO COMPRESSION FOR WINDOWS 10
Post by: Wizzel on July 21, 2018, 01:33:57 PM
Hello, remember me?

I'm back and building again - 1 kit done and 1 well on the way - in a month!  I would like to get active on the site once more but I've inherited a windows 10 machine and the old shrink pic software isn't compatible with it.  Any other '10 users out there and if so, can you recommend FREE compression software so I can get posting once more.

Cheers in advance,

Wizzel

Hi Wiz good to have you back.
I am running shrink pics on windows and the differences are as follows.
When I was running on old comp, shrink pics automatically did the photos as i sent them.  Now I have to open shrink pics window and drag the photos onto the section marked "drag photos onto here to resize" and then save them back into the original folder.  bit more of a faff but you get used to it.
If you are at the next meeting will demo it for you on my comp.
