Image Renaming

Image Renaming is a small Windows application whose purpose is to help you rename multiple JPEG files at the same time based on date and time criteria.

Portable utility

The portable running mode ensures no entries are left in your Windows registry. You may store it on USB flash drives or other portable devices and run it directly on the target computer (there’s no setup included in the process).

Simple looks

You are welcomed by a clean design where you can drag and drop pictures directly into the main window or use the browse button. In addition, you may import the content of an entire folder in the working environment.
The utility reveals a list with the photos that you want to process, including information about the filename, resolution, creation and modification date, last date when the image was accessed, as well as size.
You can also preview the photos with the aid of thumbnails, clear the entire workspace with a single click, and keep track of all your actions and possible errors via a log panel.

Renaming options and text watermark

You can rename files by adding or appending date and index data to the filename. Plus, you are allowed to rename files randomly and apply watermarks by embedding user-defined text and dates into the pictures.

A few configuration options

You can pick the preferred date (original date when the picture was taken, last accessed or modified date), type in the text used for creating watermarks or paste it from the clipboard, adjust the date and time format and preview the results, and pick the position of the watermark (it applies to both the date and time options).
What’s more, you can add a custom file prefix and alter the text used for displaying the watermarks in terms of font, font style, size, and color.

Bottom line

All things considered, Image Renaming comes with a basic suite of features for renaming photos, and is suitable especially for less experienced users. On the downside, it works only with the JPEG file format. It doesn’t offer support for advanced renaming settings but it gets the job done fast.
