Image Rater

Image Rater is a Python-based application that allows users to compare and rate images using an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI). It supports drag-and-drop functionality, EXIF metadata editing, and sorting images into folders based on their ratings. This tool is perfect for photographers, designers, or anyone who needs to organize and rate images efficiently.

Features

• Intuitive GUI: Compare images side-by-side and rate them with ease.
• Drag-and-Drop Support: Quickly add images or saved sets by dragging them into the application.
• EXIF Metadata Editing: Save ratings directly into the image's metadata (JPEG only).
• Folder Organization: Automatically sort images into folders based on their ratings.
• Progress Saving: Save and load rating sessions to continue later.
• Keyboard Shortcuts: Use keyboard Left and Right arrow keys to select the Left or Right image is better
