Publisher's description of Photo Dater

From Jason Specht:

Photo Dater is the ultimate program for placing date/time stamps on your photos. It works with bitmaps (BMPs), JPEGs, and GIFs. You can customize nearly everything about the stamp, specifying your own format, position, size, color, and font. You can date a single file at a time, multiple files, or an entire folder.

Editor's review of Photo Dater

3.0 stars

This simple application adds basic information to photos. Double-clicking the downloaded file launches the Photo Dater application itself, not an installer. You can annotate one file, entire folders, or selected multiple files, adding the file's date or your own customizable one. The option to specify your own date lets you stamp multiple files with any short text; the program doesn't enforce a date style. You can pick the color, font, and size of the stamp text. The program offers the choice of putting the stamp in the top left, top right, bottom left, or bottom right, or at the XY coordinates you choose. Though you don't get a preview of the stamped file, the program saves the stamped file as filename-dated without changing the original. Anyone who needs to batch-stamp images could find Photo Dater useful.

"It works but has issues"

by Arkayem on June 22, 2008

Pros: It puts the date stamp on the photo in any position you want it.

Cons: It uses the Creation Date of the file instead of the Date Taken of the picture. If you run this program on the original jpegs directly from the camera, those two dates are the same, but if you run this program on the jpegs after editing, the date changes to the date you saved the edited image.

"Exactly what I've been looking for!"

by swpross on January 5, 2008

Pros: This software does what it says almost too easily! I have been looking for weeks to find a program that will add dates to an entire folder. I have downloaded and tried many different programs, but none work as well and as simply as this one.
