Quickscale is designed to let you scale a large of of pictures to a desired size and format. Now, why would you want to do that? For example, if you wish to share your holiday photo's with family and friends, you can either send them by e-mail or put them somewhere on a website. The problem is that these pictures are usually far to large, have immense resolutions, and take far to long to send.

Meet Quickscale: select the images, choose a desired resolution, and Quickscale scales them down for you.

I've been using QuickScale for a few years, and still find it the best app for quickly resizing images. The interface is clean and easy to understand (well, except for the Location section, which doesn't fit with Mac conventions). The ability to set presets makes it easy to repeat tasks.

The only thing I'd like to see is a droplet feature that would enable me to drag files onto the droplet and have them automatically resized without the need to even launch QuickScale.

Presets are aviable. Please check out the menu.

There are some sharpen tools available. More tools will be added in the future (optionally).

Very pricey for not having presets and a sharpening function.

15 DOLLARS ....OR just FREE as in BEER:

The best resizer I've found for Mac is the FREEWARE 'ThumbsUp',
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/11898/thumbsup

ThumbsUp can not only create thumbnails or icons for images and movies.

ThumbsUp goes far beyond, it's a superfast batch image resizer, a format converter (for example jpg to tiff, etc.) and ThumbsUp can sharpen (!) and antialias (!) the images (not only the thumbs as falsly stated in the manual) and can do all that in one fast step.


...and yes, ThumsUp is FREEware.


I think Quickscale is far to expensive, therefore I don't give more than one star

Why would you pay for this when you can do it with Automator for free? (And probably Preview too, in Leopard.)

Its a bit heavyweight on the user interface side. I much prefer the damn easy to use ResizeMe.

Are you running OS 10.5? Quickscale won't open with anything less. It's for Leopard only.

There's a version for OS 10.4 also available; look at the bottom of the window above.

QuickScale 3.4 and higher is Leopard-compatible only,
why? QuickScale 3.4 and higher uses the power of QuickLook to show a matrix with previews.

There is still a download link to a little bit older version of QuickScale that works fine on Tiger.

I need to admit that there is a little problem with the auto updater. Tiger users that uses QuickScale 3.3 (not the Tiger only QuickScale 3.3.1) will see the Leopard update. With the result that they download a incompatible QuickScale, that don't want to start.

My excuses for all the problems.

Tested. But it does not work fine.

I recommend other software in this section.

Since Leopard broke my Photoshop Elements program and it looks like Adobe isn't about to fix the problems.

This program is a wonderful addition to my graphic/image applications.

Good for you Quickscale.

I got a folder of 50 excellent photos of lightening from a friend, unfortunately they were very high resolution (~9000 x 9000) and were thus unwieldy. I decided to try Drag-N-Scale to resize them. It crashed (twice) while importing them. Toyviewer wouldn't even open an image from the folder.

I found this and it worked perfectly! Importing the whole folder took maybe 1/3 as long as iPhoto did. I could size them to fit my screen. The folder was reduced from ~400+ MB to 1.7 MB.

I definitely recommend this!
