Hi Everyone,

OK, I promise I'll get on with the other tools.... next :-) [Scene Merger, Code Editor AND something super cool we discovered]...

But for now, here's another FREE tool. After having a chat with a few other users, I've put together a very quick application, that lets you resolve some basic issues in PNG Files. It's very much in development and is therefore still in Beta, but your feedback on the tool would be awesome. Also, cause we want as many users as possible to use the tool it's completely free.

Here's what it does.
With the PNG Image Inspector tool, you will be able to quickly review all of your PNG files and fix any issues the tool may find. From resolving DPI issues to correcting odd sized PNG Files. This tool provides you with a quick and effective interface to fix your PNG Files.
Also built in is a powerful compression algorithm to further reduce disk space. Additionally the algorithm will reduce the Bit Depth where possible.

Features
- Auto add/Subtract pixels to your PNG files to avoid blurry images in iOS game development.
- Force the resolution of your PNG files to 72 dpi.
- Apply compression to your PNG files to save space.
- Automatically adjust the bit depth, depending on masks, palettes and colour schemes.
- Visually see potential issues in the interface.
- Double click images in the list to open.
- See a Preview of your Image and the Mask extracted.
- Zoom in/out to see your images closer.

Note
- This version will not work with NESTED folders, only the selected parent folder will be reviewed.
- Will fix this in a future release.
- Our Server sends you the Link to the tool, to your Email address, so if anything, please supply a valid email address.

Cheers

    Nice, can't wait to try it out! Saves a lot of time exporting from Inkscape... Just export, then run through this...

    Extremely excited about the sounds of these.

    Thanks for all the freebies lately. Almost feeling like the GS forum from a year ago with all the generosity.

    @Wayne
    Haha I thought so, he read my mind even on a sunny beach far far away. I suspect what you've really done is put little snippets of code in DBA tools which crawl through our GS files and reads all our frustrations. Genius!:)

    PS For the next tool, please could you make one that automatically outputs high-end graphics, dolby surround sound audio, one-click game creation with guaranteed feature spot and ability to knock off any bird themed game from the top spot in the app charts? If it's not pushing it too much, can the file also be under 20mb?

    Many thanks.

    PStudios, what did you do to make the Exception appear? Ie, what buttons / files did you select or press?

    If it was a PNG file you selected that caused the error - could you email me the PNG file to have a look at? - There are so many variations and different types of PNG to handle.
