JustResizeIt is a free utility that makes image resizing really simple. This Adobe Air application will run on Mac, Windows, or Linux (so long as you have a GUI and can drag and drop with your mouse).
Once you download and install the application, you can easily batch processes a bunch of photos by dragging a group of them onto the little icons that corresponds to the size you need.
In this example I needed these photos to be at 640×480 so I dragged them to the properly 640×480 icon.
Once I release the mouse over the icon, JustResizeIt starts to process the files. You will see a progress indicator which tells you how many files have been processed so far.
When it has finished processing your files, you can simply drag the icon back to the same folder, to the desktop, or to a new folder where you want the resized files to appear (also try dragging them into the body of an email).
In this case, I chose to place the resized images back into the same folder the originals were in.
JustResizeIt automatically renames the files using the date and the size you chose and places them in the folder.
It’s that simple. No need to open a complicated photo editing program to resize images.
Customization
JustResizeIt also allows you to customize the current sizes and add new ones as well. If you need to change any of the settings, you can simply open the expansion tab up and have the customize settings available for use.
If you need a quick and easy way to resize your images, download JustResizeIt and give it a test drive yourself.

]]>Ever wanted to create your own font? Maybe you have a creative project you want to do and need that special font to make it just perfect. Now you can create your own fonts with FontStruct.
Fonstruct gives you a design interface in which to draw your letters. You’ll create capital and lower case letters and can also do the numbers and symbols if you want. When you’re done, you can simply download the font set and install on your computer. You can also share the font with others.
You don’t have to draw every letter if you’re not going to use them all, but if you want to share your creation, it might be a good idea to have a complete set.
What’s also cool about Fonstruct is that you can create any designs or shapes and use them as fonts. Say you want your “A” to look like a gorilla, go for it. Then perhaps your “B” looks like a banana – that’s cool too. Now put them together to make a nice little gorilla eating a banana picture. Just check out some of the picto people that have been created by user saberrider.
Here are a few featured fonts available in the Fonstruct gallery.
