History
I made EasyThumb because when I do pages for my programs I have to take some screenshots from them and because they can't just be put to a page (because of their big size), I have to make thumbnails out of them (see the explanation bellow). Making thumbnails with ordinary image edit tools is easy and simple when only ONE IMAGE has to be thumnailed, but when more than one images have to thumbnailed it is only annoying and time taking. I used some commercial program to make thumbnails, it had poor selection of options and functions and when the 30 evaluation time expired I decided to make my own program where I have packed all the good and useful qualities from the commercial program and added a pack of my own. This is why EasyThumb was made!
What is thumbnail?
Thumbnail means a shrinken version of original image. These are usually used in internet; lets think about image-gallery in internet. If images there were showed as large 800x600 good quality images and about 100 on a single page. Downloading the page would take hours, but if they were thumbnails; there could be thousands of thumbnails on a single page without downloading taking hours. Sometimes besides the size quality is also reduced.

What is new!
1.0 <---> 1.1, Sort of a complete rewrite. Cosmetic changes, more HTML-options, more image formats to read, PNG + TGA image formats to save to. Loads of other small things, to bring it to the new millennium!
