Title: Feature request: Automatic image resizer
Post by: got an idea on June 15, 2009, 07:20:34 PM: I love rightload, have been using it for a long time now.

I recently changed from Windows XP to XP X64 bit. In the 32bit version Microsoft released the "power toys" and in that was a real simple and effective image resizer. But i don't have that now and i can't find a good replacement ether.

So I was thinking, the only reason I ever resize a picture is when I am uploading it. So why not have an option to have rightload automatically resize the picture while uploading? 1 click resize/upload, can’t beat that!

Just downloaded it! That is GREAT!

The resizer is very good and makes a very nice resized image with little loss of quality.

Good job!

FYI, the contex menus don't work in Windows XP X64 but not a big deal, send to still works fine.

Tried that one, didn't work for me.

Post by: mcfrag on July 07, 2009, 11:20:20 AM: Yeah.. Resize option is really nice, but hidding it deeply in Options (and only one resize dimension set) is not good idea. Sometimes I need upload some resized pics (for forums), sometimes I want to send pics without resize. Each time I have to change that in RL settings, it is not so handy.

I thing that resize option should be available on main Rightload window (combobox with some presets defined in options or something similar).
