In a world where AI generated images are more and more used, you’ll discovered that not all generated images are as you wish. That’s why, quite often multiple images are generated in the hope to find a few correct ones.

That’s where Directory Crop adds value. By helping you to quickly select the correct ones, even when only a part of the image is correct and delete the other ones.

Directory Crop is based on the Screenshot Crop software

🆕AI Tool to Select the Best Images: Directory Crop 1.0ß

AI generated images are often bad, sometimes partially bad/good and a few times good. That’s why people don’t generate one image but multiple images. Then they have the task to select the best images. That where Directory Crop will help. You can easily delete bad files with right click or delete key, or select the part of the image you want to keep. It automatically goes to the next image after delete/crop. You can also navigate the images using the mouse wheel or left/right keys.

All is done to get the best of your images in a minimal time.

🆕🆓M2 Repo Cleaner 1.0ß

I’ve just released a new utility for Maven Repository: M2 Repo Builder.

M2 Repo Builder is a utility that will scan your Maven repository (~/.m2/repository) and try to find old versions of libraries and old snapshots. You can then see the list and decide which files to delete. This should free up space on your hard disk.

The amount of saved space is displayed and you’re encouraged to share it with colleagues and online with #m2repocleaner.

The idea came after I added a search for old versions and snapshots in Ant Commander Pro file manager.

🆕Control Dashboard Pro 1.0ß
