That's it, people. With lots of emotion I announce the first release of my first ever open-source desktop app. Who happen to know I'm blind will laugh (and I share that laugh, so feel free and don't hold yourselves): it's an image converter. I was in need of an accessible solution for well… converting images from one format to another and didn't find anything, especially that supported ICO needed, for example, for making favicons for websites.
Anyway, it's a dead simple and of course accessible #Windows app that can work with most popular image formats, can convert in batches, can do favicons, application icons, resize with keeping proportions or cropping as you wish (very useful if, for example, you need a photo of yourself but 128x128 pixels and not a pixel wider). You can paste images straight to the main window, and you can even paste direct links. It also supports detecting and downloading files that are stored in clouds (I tested with OneDrive).
Anyway, it's called SIC! (for the Latin word "Sic" and for "Simple Image Converter"). Oh, and it's multilingual, supports English, French, German, Ukrainian and Russian for now. And yes, you can use it as installed software or in portable mode, and it doesn't go to the Internet (only to check for updates), unless you add an image by link or prefer to update automatically. I reiterate: your images are converted on your device and don't go anywhere.

#Accessibility #OpenSource #Software #SelfPromoting@menelion not sure why we should laugh, situation indeed a bit ironic, but also very understandable
