Quick
sorting (using Irfanview)
How
to quickly go through your pictures and choose the one's you like
best
wouldn't it be nice to go over the 100+ pictures you just took , viewing them
in full size and do not have to wait forever for them to load on
the screen? And how about the headache of picking the pictures you
like to print and then writing down the file name on a paper in order
to copy them to your Disk-On-Key?
With
Irfanview it is EASY!
Make Irfanview your default software for
viewing files.
A.
right click on any image file (jpg) you might have
B.
select : OPEN WITH
C.
select : CHOOSE
PROGRAM
D.
select: Irfanview from the list or browse to find it on your
hard drive.
E.
Before you click OK make
sure you check the “always use the selected program
to open
this kind of file”
once you're
done setting Irfanview as your default, double click on one of the
images you'd like to view
The image
will open in Irfanview. you can play with VIEW->DISPLAY
OPTIONS (I like choosing FIT
ONLY BIG IMAGES TO DESKTOP.)
In order to
best see the files Click ENTER, and the image will open in Full
screen mode.
Now just
click on the arrow buttons to see the next/previous images. You'll
be amazed by how fast the images shift
How
do you quickly save the files you would like to print, edit or resize
on another folder ?
I usually
save all my files in a folder that contains the date and place or
event – let's say : 2008-05-31
Ricks wedding.
Then
I make a new folder named “For Editing”. In this folder
I'll have a copy
of
the images I'd like to edit (a copy to keep the originals save)
While
viewing my originals, when I see an image I'd like to edit (or save
for printing etc) I'll just click F8 . In the Copy
file(s)
window I'll put the folder destination in the first spot. ( c:\my
pictures\ 2008-05-31 Ricks wedding\ For Editing)
Once
I define the target folder I just hit the correct number under the
Use Directory
After
the first time we save a picture, the target folder will stay so you
can just click F8 and the the "1"
button ant that's it!!
In
case you would like to MOVE files instead of COPY them, do the same
as above but while pressing the F7 button
That's
All. now go and give it a try...
