PearlMountain Image Converter Review and Giveaway – 20 Winners (Total ARV $600)!

May 3, 2012 By Deb Chitwood

The giveaway is now closed. Please see the bottom of the post right under the Rafflecopter form for the announcement of the 20 winners!

Need Watermarking and Image Conversion?

I LOVE Pinterest, but Pinterest has made it necessary to learn how to watermark photos. Otherwise, it’s simply too easy for images to be pinned and repinned without a link or clue to the original source. And blog scrapers make the situation even worse.

I was wondering about watermarking software as well as simple options for labeling photos and resizing images. Fortunately, I was given the opportunity to review PearlMountain Image Converter and host a Mother’s Day giveaway of 20 full licenses of PearlMountain Image Converter software (ARV $30 each)!

Reviewing PearlMountain Image Converter was a very pleasant experience. PearlMountain Image Converter is an easy method for batch converting and processing images. It allows you to convert images to other formats, resize, rotate, crop, add watermark, apply effects, and add a border to many images at a time. It’s simple to adjust digital photos for printing or for your blog, e-mail, or any other web-based use. You can even save operations as profiles for future use.

PearlMountain Image Converter supports 60+ image formats, including JPEG, BMP, TIFF, PNG, PSD, GIF, TGA, ICO, PDF, and RAW. I tried converting JPGs to PNGs, resizing, and  adding a watermark to a number of images at once. It worked well!

Here’s an image from my Montessori-Inspired Lorax Activities that I updated with the PearlMountain Image Converter. I resized it, added a label, and added a watermark.

There are many ways my image could be changed, but this was my first attempt … and it didn’t take me too long to figure out how to use the software.

PearlMountain Image Converter System Requirements

  • Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, XP, Vista (32- and 64-bit), Windows 7 (32- and 64-bit)
  • 300 MHz processor or faster processor
  • 256MB RAM (512MB or more recommended)
  • 5MB hard disk space for installation

Disclosure: I was given a full license of PearlMountain Image Converter to review. I was not required to give a positive review, and the opinions expressed here are my own.

Now for the Giveaway:

    I love that they have batch image converter. I have about 500 images I would love to do, that would make it super easy.

    Oh I so want this. Have been looking for something like this for a while now.

    I really could use something like this! I’ve had my images stolen from Pinterest and had other bloggers try to pass them off as their own, so I have learned the importance of watermarking the hard way! I like the copyright feature and that your text can have different colored backgrounds. Very cool!

    This would be a great program for my art work I am thinking! I like to scan and post my original art on my blog but to be able to watermark them would be fantastic.

  7. Brandi says

    May 6, 2012 at 7:58 am

    I am considering starting a blog and it sounds like this is something I might need!

  8. Kerry says

    May 6, 2012 at 5:44 am

    I would love this! I have been wanting to put images of my art work and art lessons on pinterest but didn’t know how to protect the images. Great giveaway! Thank you!

    I’d like this software for the same reason you wrote about – to protect images on Pinterest and related things

  10. Sara R. says

    May 5, 2012 at 3:49 pm

    I would love to win! I just started a blog and would like to feel more comfortable posting my photos.

  11. Mieke Giles says

    May 5, 2012 at 10:45 am

    Neat! I was thinking that I should find some way to mark my images so people cannot steal them as there own. I actually found one of my images on someone elses blog the other day – and it was posted as if it belonged to them!

    I always need to make simple changes to pictures and I don’t have any application to use. This would be perfect and sounds like something I could do. Thanks for making it open to Canadians.

    Awesome software!! I love this post so much. thanks for hosting.

  14. Julie says

    May 3, 2012 at 9:14 pm

    I need this software! I like to blog straight from blogger and I wished blogger itself would let us alter our pictures, the way we can with livewriter. This software seems great.

    My favorite feature is Output Images with Highest Quality

  16. Marthalynn says

    May 3, 2012 at 10:28 am

    I want to watermark and label my images, too!

  17. My Boys' Teacher says

    May 3, 2012 at 7:13 am

    I really need to start watermarking…I haven’t even tried.

  18. Alicia says

    May 3, 2012 at 6:14 am

    Oh the things I could make! : )

  19. Jenny says

    May 3, 2012 at 5:51 am

    I like the Watermark for Image Copyright Protection feature!

  20. Jenny says

    May 3, 2012 at 5:43 am

    I’d like to try another alternative to watermark my images!
