Image Converter is a desktop GUI application for converting images between JPEG, PNG and GIF formats
The app, still under development is written in Python using the PIL library for image manipulation and Tkinter for the GUI
The user can now:
Select an image file for conversion using a file selection dialog - no need to type the filepath
Choose the file type to be converted to from a dropdown menu
Select if resizing is required and if so enter dimensions
Choose the new file name and location from a file save dialog
Currently the app supports conversion between the following filetypes:
JPEG
PNG - Portable network Graphics
GIF - Graphics Interchange Format
BMP - Bitmap
TIFF - Tag Image File Format
Issues / still to-do:
Possible support for producing icon (.ico) files
Aesthetic changes and improvements to the GUI
Testing
