Edit Photos

Unlike many traditional photo editors we do not edit the original image. YouDoPhoto preserves your originals and uses a temporary file to save the editor settings. For example if you are creating greyscale versions of your originals for the website the greyscale transformation will be applied when the pages are published and the images created for the web. The originals remain unchanged. 

  • Browse, create thumbnails and resize images.
  • Image Metadata information.
  • User defined responsive image sizes.
  • Single or batch edit multiple images.

Responsive Images.

A family photo website or photographic gallery is of no use if the images are not optimised. Large images are the cause of slow and responsive websites resulting in frustrated users. To resolve this problem modern browsers are able to choose the correct image to fit the screen size and resolution where they are available.

YouDoPhoto automatically creates four responsive sizes for each of your originals in any supported format. These are optimised for common computer and mobile phone screen resolutions. This means you will have a fast responsive photo website which is essential when viewing on a mobile phone.

Resize your primary images to incorporate responsive sizing. Define a naming scheme and batch resize all images to optimise image loading speed on desktop or mobile. The srcset attribute of the img tag allows you to set responsive images the browser can use depending on the pixel density or window width. By updating the HTML when you build a static page you do not need an image server.

  • Resize selected images.
  • Image suffix naming scheme append to file name.
  • Multiple formats including Webp.
  • The JPEG quality can be set. The value should be in the range 1-100 (with default 80).
