Bobby our forum dad showed us a new optimizer, pixlr.com. At the moment this is for mainframe computers and laptops, but also works for touchphones such as mine, where I do all of my CCF stuff. He is still working on the ins and outs of making this work for all of us.
Yeah, on 4/22 a few days ago the current optimizer also stopped working for me at a certain step.

Not a bad program to use. but as to rotating the image it can only be dome in quarter turns. Sometimes I only need to turn an image I take by only 1 to 4 degrees - of which (unless I'm missing something) is something I cannot do with it.
I guess I'll keep using the windows default image viewer/optimizer for now.

Could you add the link to the previous CCF optimizer back? It works for me (and I recently reloaded my browser, so it's not cookies), and I'd rather use that while it works than have to switch to something so much more complicated.
I do recall seeing a similar app somewhere online, but it was a while ago and I'm not sure if it still exists...
(I'll save it in my bookmarks, for now, and I'll probably do some more testing in other browsers. But right now, in Firefox 99 under Windows 10, it works as perfectly as it always did.)
[EDIT: some minor editing for clarification.]

I've received complaints about the old one several times per week for quite some time. To be honest, I've gotten dozens and dozens of emails thanking me for the new one saying it's much easier. Honestly, I find it incredibly easy. Literally 30 seconds start to finish. Did you actually try it or just look at the tutorial and assume it's complicated? |

It was the opposite: I actually tried it and couldn't figure out where to even start, and missed the tutorial explaining exactly what options I'm supposed to choose. Maybe next time I'll try it. Probably wouldn't make my pics too much worse. I'll miss the convenience of the current optimizer, though. |

I doubt you miss the old one at all after a few times through the new one.

Ah! got it.. Thanks - they call it "straighten", just above the "Rotate and Flip" function.
