Batch Image Processor

Inspiration

I have a meme database, when I was backing up the server files yesterday, I realized some memes are very large. Since I have hundreds of memes, it will be impractical to manually resize them, so I decided to make a software to automate the process.

What it does

It can read 8 different formats, batch scale and rename, then convert to one of the 5 supported output formats. It can also automatically filter out files that are not supported. As an extra functionality, it can also create empty image of any size.

How I built it

I built it with Visual Studio, this software is written in C#.NET

Challenges I ran into

I ran into some issues with writing to a variables in another thread. Also, file size of some formats are not easy to estimate, which is currently limiting the implementation of file size limit.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I was able to get multi-threading working to efficiently process a large amount of images.

What I learned

I learned how to set up asynchronous functions.

What's next for Batch Image Processor

File size limit, color filter.
