ThumbnailCutter is an image cropping and resizing tool designed with the purpose of creating web-friendly thumbnails in mind.
Upon opening an image, ThumbnailCutter displays the image dimensions and size above the original image and a preview of the edited image. The portion of the image to be preserved is edited graphically by moving and resizing a rectangle overlaid on the image, while dimensions of the resultant image are controlled by text input in fields underneath the preview image. The selection rectangle's left-hand-bottom-corner's coordinates and its size are displayed in pixels at the bottom of the interface for those interested in precision.
Unfortunately, during the testing I found out that width dimensions are unpredictably supported - the program simply refuses to accept them in the text field for whatever reason. This flaw very nearly negates the usefulness of the application.
Pros
- Straightforward interface
- Option to include background of any solid color
Cons
- Does not support drag'n'drop or batch actions
- Certain width dimensions are unsupported
- Other tools can achieve for free what this app does for a premium
