Image cropping and resizing made easy.

iZoom is a simple application designed to allow you to easily resize and crop your photos for optimized display on your iPod photo, on the web, or in email messages to friends. iZoom is very useful for creating web photo galleries, forum-user avatars, and image thumbnails, or resizing your photos for perfect viewing on your iPod photo screen. Drag photos from your filesystem or directly from iPhoto to the iZoom canvas!

New in 1.2 - Custom Export Size presets!

Version 1.2 adds the ability to customize and persist custom export sizes via the Preference Pane.

New in 1.1 - Export file size preview!

iZoom now dynamically calculates and displays the total file size for the cropped image -- this helps you decide precise export quality settings before exporting.

Java-powered.

Built using the popular Java™ programming language and Swing component toolset, iZoom is available for Mac OS X, Linux, and Windows.

Using iZoom to crop your images is very straightforward...

Start the iZoom app by double clicking its icon.
Drag an image from your filesystem or from iPhoto onto the iZoom window.
Select the crop size for your final product.
Position the image with the mouse, and use the slider-bar to size the image to fit perfectly in the cropping region.
Drag the 'Export Quality' slider to control the quality of your cropped image.
Click the 'Crop and Save...' button and choose a destination for your cropped image.

About...

iZoom is still being tested on different platforms, so the system requirments are somewhat unknown... Java Runtime Environment 1.4 is required.

Currently, JPEG is the only supported image format.

iZoom is developed by Todd Ditchendorf in his spare time as a vehicle to learn ever more about the fascinating Java language.
