Take the pain out of preparing contest entries.
This Photoshop tool prepares entries for final submission to online photo competitions. It has a bunch of cool stuff built in, but the coolest is something nothing else can do: automatically save at a specific size in kb. That’s right: no more manual Save for Web. Interested? Read on.
Contests are fun. Contest prep is not.
Contest Preppie FTW!
Contest Preppie has all kinds of automated goodness baked right in: metadata stripping, sharpening, colourspace conversion and customization via actions. And of course, image resizing and the all-important ability to save your images at the maximum possible quality while staying within the limits required by the contest. It just doesn’t get any easier.
It’s easy on the eyes, too.
All this and a bag of chips
Contest Preppie will run on the currently open and active file, or will process all the files you select in Bridge.
The Resize Settings are supplied by the contest you are entering: just plug them in and Contest Preppie will do the rest.
Extra options for processing your images include:
- Metadata removal for security and increased file efficiency;
- Colourspace conversion to ensure colour accuracy on the widest number of displays;
- Unsharp Mask to give your images a bit of a pop;
- And if you have your own Secret Sauce for final image preparation (and I know you do!) just call the action and you’re good to go!
And files are saved wherever you like, ready to go. Could this be any easier?
