Batch Optimize Png, Jpg, and Gif images in Windows (and Visual Studio)

Judy Alvarez February 28, 2022March 3, 2022

A couple of days ago I found an awesome extension to Visual Studio that lets you just right-click a folder in VS and it will optimize all the images in it with the help of SmushIt and PunyPng. I have tried to find a tool like this for a long time but haven’t found anything that suits my need. I also wanted this functionality in Windows outside of Visual Studio so I downloaded the code and made an extremely simple command prompt application for it. It would, of course, be even better if you could just right-click a folder in Windows to run it but I’m a lazy person and this works for me.

Just run BatchOptimzeImage.exe <foldername> and it will optimize all the images in that folder. I won’t give so much more instructions than this. And again .. ALL credits go to Mads Kristensen for this one. I just wanted to put this out there so you don’t have to spend the hour I spent to make a console app out of it.

Internet Explorer 6 and 7 has a really really annoying bug that makes it really hard to use z-index.

Signing a request to set up a custom Amazon CloudFront Distribution with C#

I love most of Amazon’s Web Services (AWS). CloudFront is their CDN service and they have an awesome feature that lets you host your files on your server and then Amazon automatically grabs the files from your server and puts them on their CDN.
