Right Click Image Convert

jocose

Anyone out there know of a good free app that will ad a "convert to..." option to the right click menu?

It would be really nice to be able to take an image and just change its format without having to open photoshop.

(Found using search term "image format convert context menu", FYI)

renderhjs

though not directly what you want:

I use that tool each time to convert, sort and display thumbnails of images + its freeware and can be used without installing.

Irfanview has a shell extension where you can right click on an image and convert it another format. I use it all the time, very very useful timesaver.

Xnview has the same shell extension as an optional install.

Hi,
even if you don't use it as your main image viewer, you can still install irfanview for it to take care of such things. I'll post my setup if I can find it tomorrow. Basically a friend wrote me a little script doing the following :
right click a psd > send to > jpg created in the same folder, plus a copy in a artdump folder.
Very handy!
