ImageSizer has been reviewed over at RefreshingApps.com. It’s a pretty good review, so go check it out at: http://refreshingapps.com/showcase/app/imagesizer/. You can of course download ImageSizer from the Adobe AIR Marketplace, or via the install badge below;
ImageSizer is now up to version 0.4.6. If you’re paying attention to the number of updates I’ve been putting up here, that’s a noticable jump from the last update, so I guess it’s time for a roundup of all of the features that have been introduced in this, and the other recent updates I forgot to mention.
If you’ve been running ImageSizer then hopefully you’ll have seen the automatic updates announce themselves, but here they are with a features list and pictures!
A couple of days ago Adobe relaunched the AIR Marketplace – the official repository of AIR applications available for download – and with it made things a lot more accessible for ‘Publishers’ to add their applications to the Marketplace. I’m not really sure how you got your applications on the previous version of the marketplace, but now you just have to submit yourself as a publisher, get approved, and then submit your AIR application to the Marketplace (which also has to be approved).
So I’m pleased to announce that ImageSizer is now available from the Adobe AIR Marketplace, and we even fixed a few bugs in the process.
I’m a bit of a slave to my own ideas – why else would I spend my evenings knocking together a whole host of not-really-nessesary features for a simple application? I have to many ideas I want to impliment and too little time to do it, so I’m also acutely aware that I tend to break things without realising, when I try and rush new features through. Hopefully though, it’ll all turn out ok in the end!
Today’s release of ImageSizer (version 0.4.3) introduces another new feature – the Feedback panel. Essentially it’s just a traditional e-mail contact form – heck, it doesn’t even have any validation (yet) – but it should allow anyone who has any ideas or comes across any bugs to drop me a note from within the application. Kudos to Eero Koplimets for taking the time to suggest this feature!
Well, I’m a bit slack on the whole updates front – ImageSizer 0.4.0 and 0.4.1 have already slipped under the radar without a blog post – but with the latest release I thought I’d draw a little attention to it, not least because it fixes a bit an annoying bug that I introduced in version 0.4.1!
Well, one of the things that I’ve found a lot of AIR applications are missing at the moment, is the ability to configure their settings – particulary those things mentioned by Serge Jespers in his post: “6 AIR features that may annoy your users” [link]. Back with version 0.3.10 I introduced some Pixel Bender filters to the application. Version 0.4 introduced the Application Settings window – although it only appeared to work. Version 0.4.1 expanded on this by introducing some backend code that actually stored the settings, but had a glaring typo that meant the whole thing didn’t work. Version 0.4.2 in short, fixes this.
