What Quicksilver can do to your images
I always impress my buddies by showing off the Quicksilver way of doing things instead of the regular way, the drag and drop way.
For example, if you want to send bunch of photos to your friends, but first they need to be resized and compressed,
1. you can simply select them all (the files),
2. trigger the ‘Quicksilver’s Command Window with selection’ tool. All the files are selected and ready for the next action, so now we want to resize them to 800 pixel width, so we type:
3. sca then hit tab to enter the size. You can enter 800×600 or 80% or something like ‘800 as high progressive jpeg’ then hit enter. The resized files are already selected for your next action
4. Now we want to compress them using tgz, so we hit the tab and type compre, tab and type tg and press enter
5. Now the compressed file is selected and you could do anything with it, like move, copy, alias, rename, etc. In this case, wa want to email it to someone, so you tab and type send, hit tab again to select your contact from address book.
