JPEG Saver 5.24
Here is yet another JPEG Saver release, coming out now because it has a couple of bugs fixed and a couple of useful extra features added too.
Windows are the eyes to the soul - wait, that's not right
The main new thing is this version is a command-line option. Oh, that's not very exciting, is it? Well, it's a command-line option that lets you run JPEG Saver in a fixed window that stays open until you close it, not like a screensaver at all. You will find a description and some examples on the command line options page.
JPEG Saver 5.23.1
It has just been a couple of weeks since the last version of JPEG Saver, but there are a few bugs fixed and I didn't want to wait until I have some big, complicated stuff done to release them.
Roses are red, violets are blue, it's Valentine's day tomorrow and I don't know where I'm going with this
Anyway, here's a list of what is new or fixed in this version:
JPEG Saver 5.23
This new version of JPEG Saver is mostly about transitions, though I did fix a bug.
New year, new transitions
Well, it was a new year when I started working on them. I hadn't added any transitions since 2021, so I thought it was about time I did something new, and I've come up with four that move lots of copies of the old and new image around:
- Sphere - images arranged in concentric spheres, rotating;
- Cylinder - images arranged in concentric cylinders, rotating;
- Ring - images in a ring, the camera pulls back and then zooms back in;
- Depth spiral - images spiralling away from the camera, which shifts position.
