I'm from Canada. The desktop optimizer works the same way as before.

I can get to the optimizer, rotate and crop, but when I save after it all is when it wants $o.75 cents, or 5 bucks or 10 bucks and won't replace the original picture on my desktop. Says I've reached my daily limit, but I can't get a view of the cropped image anywhere.

Thanks hfjacinto, I'll try it, or should I say, my daughter is coming over to help dear old Dad. Stay tuned....

My daily limit must have reset. I can post pics today. That was a weird one yesterday.

I guess I am not surprised they are throttling the free access. Glad you are back to it. Just have to pace yourself.

Maybe now you will listen to me and add a link to the old optimizer, just in case https://www.coincommunity.com/image-optimizer/Still works for me, anyway. Apparently some people reported it not working on their end. (I suspect more likely it would get deleted now that its existence is out in the open. But there's always hope...) (EDIT: just in case, please don't delete it - I'm actively using it for my own pics [though I don't post as many these days], and I never got the hang of the Pixir version... way too cluttered for me.)

I just use the default 'Microsoft Photos App that came with windows 10. I can rotate, crop and resize the images just fine.

I generally always use the free Fastone Image Viewer https://www.faststone.org/ since it can save into jpg or other formats (ctrl+s) such as from having an initial png image and can adjust compression of the jpg as well, plus change resolutions (ctrl+r), up or down without loss to resize the images, can also crop, rotate (r) and adjust colors lighting and contrast etc. A good tool to have with everything except a round crop or combining side to side images like in photoscape.

I'm willing to bet that they were free for a while, but then everyone here started using it and those folks saw a 'huge' uptake in activity on their site and now think they can sell it. But what will happen when we all STOP using it after they set in their 'pay to play' program? Quote: round crop or combining side to side images like in photoscape. I really like photoscape - it is a very good image tool to use for special functions.
