Toulouse, France -- (ReleaseWire) -- 04/29/2006 --In one click, Image Resizer by VSO Software resizes pictures or changes their format as desired: the reduced file size enables faster loading, improved pictures management and saves storage space. Image files which are smaller in size are more easily sent by email, something difficult to do with the original file size. It is also the perfect tool for webmasters or people wanting to publish images on the internet.

Image Resizer handles images in all popular formats: bmp, jpeg, gif, png and can converts them at the preferred resolution (from 320x200 to 1600x1200, including even Ipod photo and video, Sony PSPS, HDTV and DVD). The images will adjust automatically to the size of the desktop or to the source used to display them.

The user can freely choose the appropriate resolution and image quality matching the desired compression speed or digital store space to be saved. To send, move, shrink or enlarge a single picture or a whole batch, VSO Image Resizer will do the job in just one click.

“This new tool offers the same look and feel than the other VSO products, simplicity, performance and response to customers’ requests. This new freeware is the first step towards a complete new Photo Editing suite currently under development at VSO, which we expect to release towards the end of 2006” says Fabrice Meuwissen, VSO Software Marketing Manager.

Once downloaded, the software is automatically integrated in Windows Explorer and can be opened with a simple right-click on the mouse. Another nice option is that, when inserting a memory card into the PC, Windows will automatically offer to use Image Resizer to adjust the image.

VSO-Software provides Image Resizer as freeware (no cost!). The application is a convenient 1.5MB small and can be downloaded free of charge on http://www.vso-software.fr/products/image_resizer
