Imagine For Mac

Working with images is the surest way of encountering the need of a powerful and easy to use photo optimization utility.

Thus, if your latest web application requires the smallest possible images for speedier loading times, you are left with a simple choice: to use a picture compression app which should allow your web app to save a lot of bandwidth by drastically reducing the size of all bundled images.

Imagine is an excellent choice if you want a PNG and JPEG optimizer, capable of running on multiple platforms (i.e. macOS, Windows, and Linux) and of batch processing large collections of image files at a time.

The Imagine app enables you to add multiple images by drag and dropping them on its main screen, and, once they're loaded, you can customize the degree of compression for each photo using the slider control underneath it.

As an added advantage, Imagine also features a real-time preview tool for viewing the exact impact of the currently selected compression level.

More precisely, using the preview feature which can be accessed by clicking on any of the loaded images, you can see the exact amount of artifacts which will pollute the output image if saved using your selected level of quality.

Imagine also enables you to save the optimized photos separately or as a batch by either overwriting the original images, by saving them using an automatically generated name or by exporting them to a custom folder.

When you are done processing the current batch of pictures, you can rapidly remove all of them from Imagine's main screen by clicking the "Clear All" button at the top of the window. Adding new images is just a matter of clicking the "Add" toolbar button or drag and dropping a new set of photos onto Imagine's window.

The only features it lacks to make it the perfect image compression utility are a manager for custom compression profiles and a way to customize the quality level for all loaded images at the same time.

In a nutshell, Imagine is a streamlined and user-friendly tool designed to help you batch shrink PNG and JPEG images using a custom level of compression.
