Received an email from balesio a few days ago that FILEminimizer Pictures is now free for personal and home use! It used to cost €24.95 for a single user license but now anyone can just download the software, install it and start reducing the size of huge photos. A cheap camera for beginner nowadays can already go up to 10MP which will result in the photo size being really huge. For a user that doesn’t know much about computers, they would obviously waste time and bandwidth in uploading the original uncompressed photo to Facebook.
With FILEminimizer Pictures, I believe anyone would be able to reduce the size of photos on their computer because all it takes is just a few clicks. Run the software, add the photos that you want to compress and click the optimize files button. Can’t get any easier than that. It is also very effective in the sense that it is able to make a photo size 98% smaller and still look beautiful without even knowing what values to use for Bits Per Pixel, quality factor and etc on some image editing software.
This latest version of FILEminizer Pictures 3.0 comes with an integrated uploading of optimized images directly to Facebook. This saves you the trouble of manually running your web browser, log in to Facebook and then upload the photos.
If you didn’t know, you can also compress images by right clicking on the image files and select FILEminimizer from the context menu. Currently it shows 2.x which I think the programmers at balesio forgotten to update it to show 3.x instead.
Although the website just said it’s free, but during the installation, the License Agreement window clearly stated that it is intended exclusively for private use on a single workstation and may not be used for commercial or professional purposes. To be honest, FILEminimizer Pictures is what me and my wife normally use to make photo files smaller.

i also thinking is it possible doing png’s smaller as with pngout and gif’s as with supergif, jpg’s as with The JPEG Reducer (jpgtran). All without any loss in the quality of the native image???

image resizer powertoy for winxp or the free 32/64 bit clone for winxp to win7 is a lot easier to use for most people.

Hi Alan
Digito Version one will be released soon with no limit on images.
That is a bug which has been solved.
“kanimambo” this means Thank you in my mother tongue. It’s really useful Ray. Thanks a lot…
Thaks Ray. Always Useful ….
Thanks for the info.
Thanks Ray!
Thanks, I got it a few days ago and I have already used it twice. The quality decreases a bit but you barely notice it.
That’s some great news!! ^_^ I still have my license from GAOTD. xD
Thanks for the news
Thanks Raymond.
Hi Raymond,
Thanks for the info!!
But compared to this “Digito-1.0″ is much easier to use & has same features!! moreover its free……

For more & to download plz following link:

PS: Only 1 drawback is at a time it can compress only 100 pictures……..

Excellent Software.
Been waiting for it for the past 5 months.
used to have it but my computer system crashed and I lost it.
Huge thumbs up!!!
Thank you Raymond.
Seasons Greetings to you and your family and the team at Raymond CC
Thanks for the info Raymond.
I stopped using this before because for some reason the images produced was corrupted. I’ll give it a try again this time. Thank you!
@Apurv Gupta: Yes the quality does decreases but it will still look good on naked eye. There are 3 levels of compression, you can select Low / Print Compression for better quality.
I’ve been using FastStone Image Viewer to optimizing some of my HD photos until now…
but FILEminimizer looks promising…
Excellent software. Been using for a while now.
Does the quality of photos decreases after compressing photos with this software?
Thanks 4 the news man
Thanks for the info!
Thank you!
Thanks for the info !!!
