Question about meta info in pictures

[wkang87]

I'll be honest with you guys, retaking all my pictures is a pain in the hole,
I've read from past threads that there is a way to strip the meta info in the pictures so you can re-use them and they were recommending "batchpurifier lite".

How does this work? If I use that will I be able to simply alter the meta info and just simply reuse the pictures?

Also, if this is true, in the instance that I want to just use the same exact photo from someone else (I do have my own photo) will I be able to just strip the meta info and be able to use their pictures?

right click on pic
click properties
click details
click the remove properties and personal info
new box pops up click make copy with all possibilities removed ..
then you will see 2 icons for the same pic with one ending the word COPY
the copy version will be cleaned .. do it a few times and it only takes 5 seconds to wipe a pic Can even hold down left button highlite all the pics and wipe em all at the same time .

Hey, just tried the batchpurifier Lite version. Although I really thank you for your steps, it literally took 0.208 seconds to purify 100+ pictures lol.

Does this mean I'm good to reuse the picture?
Also would you be able or anyone to clarify my second question as to when using someone else picture?

Haha, I hear you. I really appreciate you sharing your methods. I wouldn't have known your method if not mentioned =D

To get to the second question. Will I be safe to use other peoples pictures if I strip the meta info?

Always take your own pictures, it's lame to use someone else's......just not cool.

I have my own pictures, not a problem to use mine, but reusing the picture after meta info has been cleared on the pictures I used before on the suspended account should be fine right?

There's always taking NEW pictures...as in, make it look like someone else took them...it's a pretty crazy idea but it works.

How does this work? Use photoshop to rotate or flip image?
