VIMAS Web Image Guru is a Web-oriented graphics optimization tool. The program supports the GIF, JPG, and PNG image formats, offering seamless image integration into Web pages including compound images and various image shapes. It features a set of thumbnail creation controls called Smart Cut and Smart Control, unique batch processing that is not restricted by simple file conversion (Triple Batch: source, processing, and destination can be different for each file), and efficient image adjustment and filtering algorithms (median, smooth, sharpen, and despeckle). Other features include: the ability to preview images in Internet Explorer in a target Web Page, and the ability to create Web-ready Photo Albums that use dynamic HTML to provide easy navigation, slide show and zoom functionality. In addition, Web Image Guru can run as an Adobe Photoshop plug-in module.
