Resco’s photo viewer scored a rave review on TamsPalm a few weeks ago(Resco Photo Viewer review) – Resco’s Jan Slodica just informed me about an update to the product(should be released as you read this) that adds a few interesting features. This is not a full review – it just looks at the most interesting new features:

Image “editing”
Resco Photo Viewer can now crop, rotate, resize and decompress pictures. These options can be accessed from the context menu:
rotmenu Resco Photo Viewer update   now with image editing and multisend rotform Resco Photo Viewer update   now with image editing and multisend

The crop area can be selected by dragging:
cropsel Resco Photo Viewer update   now with image editing and multisend

The resizing happens with fixed factors, and the rotation mode lacks a 180 degree flip option:
dsscale Resco Photo Viewer update   now with image editing and multisend rotscale Resco Photo Viewer update   now with image editing and multisend

I resized and rotated this XGA image and got this decently looking result(original file):
right8xdown Resco Photo Viewer update   now with image editing and multisend

Multisend
Resco Image Viewer now allows you to “bundle” files to be transferred. This means that all files go into one email in VersaMail and that you don’t need to click on the preferred transfer method once per file!
polysend Resco Photo Viewer update   now with image editing and multisend polyversa Resco Photo Viewer update   now with image editing and multisend

Overall, this update adds most features I wished to see in the original version of Resco Photo Viewer. Congratulations to the Resco team – this is how we do it!
