KekSoft has released Magic Converter v4.3, a powerful Windows
application that makes it easy to view, convert, optimize, enhance, and
share digital photos. Features not found in other image conversion
applications include the ability to run batch conversions, create
self-running .EXE files from image files, and convert images into
colorful ASCII art pictures in HTML format, as well as dramatic
monochrome images in text format.
Magic Converter handles all popular image formats, including BMP,
JPG,GIF, PNG, TIF, WMF, EMF, TGA, and ICO. It's easy to resize, rotate,
and adjust images. To convert a batch of images to a different format,
simply drag and drop them onto the Magic Converter window. Create
scripts so that all of your images have the same enhancements and
adjustments made to them. You can even right-click on an image in
Windows Explorer, and immediately run either Magic Converter, or a
particular Magic Converter script.
By optimizing the images on your web site, your web pages will load
faster. Magic Converter can quickly compare JPG, PNG, and GIF graphics
to create the smallest, highest-quality images. You can look at
before-and-after image quality, size, and projected download times.
With GIF and PNG compression, you can even set options for interlacing,
colors, dithering, and transparency.
Magic Converter creates special ASCII images that you can include in an
email, without having to attach an image file, and without requiring
the person who receives it to have a special image viewing program.
Magic Converter transforms your image into a colorful HTML picture or a
dramatic black-and-white text picture using ordinary ASCII characters.
Whether you're a business person who needs to convert product images to
a different format for a sales brochure, a webmaster who needs to
optimize images for your web site, or a hobbyist who wants to do screen
captures and convert the images to a standard format, Magic Converter
has the tools that you need.
Magic Converter runs under Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP, costs
$49(US), and may be purchased securely online at
http://www.keksoft.com/eng/mc/order.htm. Multi-license discounts are
available. You can download a free fully-functional, 30-day trial
version of Magic Converter from the same web site. For more
