PureBasic Forums - English

Hi everyone!

I have managed to update my old website and so I have uploaded two of my latest creations. (My old software are no longer available)

One of them is called DevTools::ImageConverter.
As the name suggests it is a simple to use image converter supporting the most important and well known image formats.
I created this tool a few years ago to fit my own needs when I noticed that when it comes to small image dimensions, like 64x64, or 128x128, PB's internal encoder can make a file that is smaller than the file created by many other image processing software. I use this tool to create the graphics for my games.

Some features of the software: small size, portability, multi-language support, drag & drop support

Input formats: bmp, png, tiff, targa, iff, Windows icon, jpeg, jpeg2000, pgm, ppm, gif, degas, pcx, dds
Output formats: bmp, png, jpeg, jpeg2000, pgm, ppm, PureBasic DataSection, Base64

The tool uses some image decoder sources that are available here on the forum. You can find the list of contributors in the help file that can be opened by pressing F1.

This tool is freeware and can be downloaded from my website.

It is available as an installer and as a zip file. There are separate installers for x64 and x86 versions. The zip files contains the x64 as well as the x86 versions.

Here is a screenshot:

Hi Everyone,

I have uploaded a new version of my ImageConverter. See the first post for the new features.

Originally I wanted to work on the Linux version, but I keep running into errors, so the Linux version will come later.
I also have problems with PB 5.71 on Windows. The 64 bit version compiles, runs and works fine. But the 32 bit version won't run. I cannot file a bug report yet, as I need to find the source of the bug first.
