Cropping Images



All,
I have project in which i am taking photos of someone's wine inventory. (more than 500 wines) As part of the poject i have to upload the images a website and basically want that all the pic should be about the same size. Height and width wise. I dont want to manually do one by one photo to make it the same size. Is there a way i can select all the photos and resize the photos to about the same size.

Currenlty i have to use the crop tool to crop out the wine bottle.


Please help.

Thanks,
Dr.Dang

You should be able to control everything when taking the pictures

Infranview works great for batch resizing it also allows you to watermark images or add a logo ect

IrfanView - Official Homepage - one of the most popular viewers worldwide

I do not believe there is ANY tool that will do what your asking...
If it did, it would need to be a situation where there was a VERY specific crop for each photo, which would ONLY occur if the photos were taken with an unmoved tripod/stationary and each bottle was in the exact same spot for each photo with the exact same dimensions.
unless every picture is exactly alike, your crop will be different for each

Thanks, I feel like you understood exactly what i am looking for. Most of my pictures are taken from the same distance using tripod. Only one thing i can think of that the bottle size and shape varies but i am willing to work with them manually. Please let me know if you know a way out. So far no easy way out.

Thanks again.

With infranview you can actually automatically crop and resize images, as well as make a bunch of other changes. The actual process of automatically cropping an image probably wouldn't be the best option because unless as JP said they are all relatively the same shot you'd be blindly cropping which means you might not always end up with the most visually appealing shot.

If all you are wanting to do is shrink the image size or reduce them to smaller images the batch resize works great. I use to use it for reducing hi res photo's down to smaller sizes for uploads to social media sites.

Well you could always create a new folder, and copy the pictures into it and auto crop the copies leaving the originals, and then any that don't turn out can be replaced from the originals and manually cropped, that way most of the work is done...
