Simply Good Pictures is a simple, easy-to-use software that allows you to edit or optimize photos instantly. If you are looking to edit a lot of photos, but you don’t have a lot of time to spare, this software allows you to optimize all these images in one click.

Simple and easy to use user interface

The main interface of the application is split into 3 major parts, with the original picture being displayed on the left, while the preview appearing on the right side of the screen. You’ll find a couple of optimization options at the bottom of the screen.

Functionality

Although auto touch ups on photos aren’t as good as doing it by yourself, Simply Good Pictures actually tries hard to incorporate essential image enhancement features that make the entire process easier. The application by itself doesn’t support batch editing, leaving you with an option to only edit a single image at a go. This is pretty much a headache, when dealing with a large number of images.

The automatic function is readily available for use, although you should note that once on this mode, you can’t use the Auto-Color function. When the Auto-Color option is off, you can easily use a slider to alter the strength of the optimization process. Simply Good Pictures also allows easy removal of noise in images and you can set automatic dynamic range, reduce shadows, correct poor exposures, and add light to images.

Pros

• Decent user interface
• Easy to use
• Automatic image sharpening and adjustment
• Places images side by side for easy comparison
• Allows switching to manual mode for those who’d like more control
• Supports a whole range of image input options

Cons

• Doesn’t support batch processing
• Only saves images as JPG or BMP

Conclusion

Simply Good Pictures is a decent software that’s easy to use and allows for automatic image adjustment. It doesn’t crash or hang during image processing. The only disadvantage is that you can only save images as JPG or BMP.

p.s., FormatFactory (freeware) solves the jpg bmp limitation.

Terry E, I have been using an earlier version of this software for a year or so now, and totally agree with your analysis. It might not have the range of programs like Photoshop, but for ease of use and just compact functionality, it is hard to beat. Simply Good kinda sums it up.

I installed it an hour ago, still waiting for my registration key. Don't know if it will arrive or not, in the meantime I checked out PhotoCleaner (Free).

I've no idea how the two compare, but I am impressed with PhotoCleaners options and it can do batch processing (which is pretty much essential for me). So I think I'll stick with it.

Worth trying.

Its been nothing but trouble: Slow, clunky and freezing up. Serial number like so many others doesnt work. I got rid of it. If an install is this hard imagine how difficult it will be to manage to use it (if you get that far).
