Batch editing is a quick way to quickly make an album of photos look great, by cropping, resizing, adding filters and more. Here we’ll show you how to batch edit your photos with Photoscape.

Photoscape is our favorite free photo editor. It’s not as powerful as GIMP, but it’s much more user friendly, and has lots of neat editing tools that are enough for most users. Read on for how to save time by batch editing your photos.

1. Open Photoscape, which you can download by clicking here, and choose ‘Batch Editor

2. Click the Add button, and find the photos you want to edit on your hard drive. Once you’ve selected the ones you want, click Open, and your files will appear in Photoscape. You can browse through them in the top central panel.

3. Add filters. On the right hand panel, click the Filter tab. I chose a high Contrast Enhance, middle Bloom and the Agfa Middle Film Effect. You can experiment here, until you get an overall effect you like. Don’t forget to use the top panel to see how the effects look on all your photos!

4. Crop and add border effects. Click the Home tab, and you can try out the large range of border effects on offer, and then crop or resize your images. Again, nothing is permanent, so you can play around as much as you like until your photos are the right size and look good.

5. Click Convert All. This will open the window below. All you need to do now is pick the location you want the edited photos to go, set how they will be named, and set the output format. For most uses, I recommend using PNG files, as they are generally higher quality than JPEGs, without taking too much space.

6. Click Save, and that’s all there is to it!
