Photo Transformer provides fast, easy and automatic categorization of images by type, date, size, etc. Photo Transformer will find images no matter where they are located on your system using its fast search and categorization engine. These categories can then be used to easily select the images you are looking for and process them in a variety of ways.

"Photo Transformer’s categories make it easy to find the images you are looking for and then process them in a variety of different ways," says Greg Brewer, CEO of Prosoft Engineering, Inc. "Now you can easily manage your photos regardless of where they are located on your computer."

Photo Transformer does not require your photos to be managed by a library or database; it will find images no matter where they are located on your system using its fast search and categorization engine. These categories can then be used to easily select the images you are looking for and process them in a variety of ways:

* Supports Aperture and iPhoto
* Handles tens of thousands of images and high-resolution images with aplomb
* Supports the latest OS X technologies, including Quicklook and Resume
* Highly parallel nature to take full advantage of multiple processors/cores

This app retails for $9.99/£5.99 and you can pick it up here.
