Program is packed with Pyinstaller (--onefile feature) - for better user experience. (packs all files into a single .exe file- u wont need loose folders etc.) which sometime may gives a false positive when checked by some antivirus programs. - is 100% safe to use. 
To avoid this i could buy a digital signature CA - THAT WAY VIRUS PROGRAMS MARKS PROGRAM AS SAFE. it will cost 300-400 dollars. 
I earn nothing on this program and just made it for myself for easier conversion between DDS and PNG files when upscaling textures from 2k to 4k on mods. Thought maybe it will be usefull for other artists out there or the average joe, and offer it 100% free of charge for everyone to use. :) 




The Image Converter is a versatile and user-friendly application designed to convert image files between various formats. It supports both single file and batch conversions, providing an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) that dynamically resizes and remembers the user's last-used directories.

Technologies Used
  • Programming Language: Python
  • GUI Framework: Tkinter (enhanced with ttkthemes for improved styling)
  • Image Processing Library: Python Imaging Library (PIL) via the Pillow library
  • Threading: Used for asynchronous operations to ensure the GUI remains responsive during conversions
  • Configuration Management: JSON for storing and loading persistent user settings

Core Features
  • Multi-Format Support:
    • Convert images between various formats including PNG, DDS, JPEG, BMP, TIFF, and GIF.
  • Single File Mode:
    • Easily convert individual image files.
  • Folder Mode:
    • Batch convert all image files in a selected folder.
  • Persistent Directories:
    • The application remembers the last used input and output directories, enhancing user convenience.
  • Dynamic GUI Resizing:
    • The layout adapts to different window sizes, ensuring a consistent and user-friendly experience.
  • Loading Spinner:
    • Provides visual feedback during long conversion processes.
  • Scrollable Log Output:
    • Displays conversion progress and status updates clearly.

Application Structure
  • Main Application:
    • Built with ThemedTk from the ttkthemes package for a modern look and feel. Uses Tkinter widgets for the GUI.
  • Configuration Management:
    • Loads and saves user settings using JSON files, ensuring persistent working directories.
  • Image Conversion:
    • Implemented using the Pillow library, which extends the capabilities of PIL to handle multiple image formats.
  • Threading:
    • Utilizes threading to perform image conversions asynchronously, keeping the GUI responsive.
  • Loading Spinner:
    • A custom loading spinner implemented with Tkinter's Canvas widget to provide visual feedback during conversions.

Usage Instructions
  • Running the Application:
    • Double-click on ImageConverter.exe to launch the application.
  • Selecting Input Mode:
    • Use the slider at the top to switch between Folder Mode and Single File Mode.
  • Selecting Input and Output:
    • In Folder Mode, click on the "Select Input Folder" button to choose the folder containing images. Click on the "Select Output Folder" button to choose the folder where converted images will be saved.
    • In Single File Mode, click on the "Select Input File" button to choose the image file to convert. Click on the "Select Output Folder" button to choose the folder where the converted image will be saved.
  • Choosing Image Formats:
    • Use the "Input Format" dropdown to select the format of the input images.
    • Use the "Output Format" dropdown to select the format you want to convert the images to.
  • Starting the Conversion:
    • Click on the "Start Conversion" button to begin the conversion process. A loading spinner will indicate that the conversion is in progress, and the log output section will display the progress and status.

Known Issues
  • GUI Scaling:
    • Minor visual inconsistencies may occur when using extreme window sizes.
  • Conversion Speed:
    • Converting large batches of high-resolution images can be time-consuming. Further optimizations are planned for future releases.





Changelog: 

After listening to feedback
-regarding wishes to implement singular file conversions and that the program should be able to remember the different directorys 

UPDATE 1.2
