Image Editing tools:
Advanced Jpeg Compressor-


I was looking for a tool to compress my Jpeg pictures which not only would compress the image but also retain its resolution.
Advanced Jpeg Compressor is one such tool which has a ggood user interface and also is easy to use. It has a batch processing option which is also useful.
This program allows you to:
* Convert images to JPEG format using the most powerful JPEG compression engine
* Shrink the large file size of your image files
* Resize images and make thumbnails

Advanced JPEG Compressor can acquire pictures from your scanner or digital camera, and save them in the JPG format with the highest quality / file size ratio. You can easily scan, compress and e-mail photos from Advanced JPEG Compressor.
Advanced JPEG Compressor works as dedicated JPEG converter, allowing you to open existing images in many formats (BMP, TIFF, GIF, PNG, ...), and a JPEG optimizer, compressing existing JPG images. The possibility to create, edit and apply named compression profiles considerably helps in processing various types of graphic files. The Batch Processing function makes it easy to process multiple images applying the selected compression profile.

Kidnap:
Cast: Sanjay Dutt, Imran Khan, Minissha Lamba, Vidya Malvade

I saw this movie yesterday. Too long (around 2hrs 30mins), got damn bored especially after seeing the second half. The story is same as 'Zinda'. The movie is about a girl Sonia(Minnisha) who stays with her mom Mallika(Vidya) as Mallika and Raina(Sanjay Dutt) get divorced when she was 10 yrs old. Sonia get kidnapped by Kabir(Imran) few days before her birthday and Kabir is interested in only to talking to Raina her dad. Inorder to free her Raina has to play the game set up by Kabir.
The movie is tolerable in the 1st half but 2nd half is damn irritating. Sanjay's acting is superb in this movie. Imran also has done well and suited the role. Minnisha has done well in her seductive role though she has exposed a lot.
The movie dint leave up to the hype created and was a big disappointment. I would give a 4/10 rating for this one
