+# Image Renamer Script
+
+> A lightweight Python utility to rename all images in a folder sequentially with a custom prefix.
+
+---
+
+## Features
+
+* **Automatic renaming** of all image files in a folder
+* **Custom prefix support** (e.g., `photo_1.jpg`, `photo_2.png`, etc.)
+* **Preserves file extensions** correctly
+* **Alphabetical renaming order** for predictable results
+* **No external dependencies** — just pure Python
+* Works on **Windows**, **macOS**, and **Linux**
+
+---
+
+## Example
+
+### Before:
+
+```
+imgA.jpg
+imgB.png
+imgC.jpeg
+```
+
+### After running with prefix `photo`:
+
+```
+photo_1.jpg
+photo_2.png
+photo_3.jpeg
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🧠 Usage
+
+### 1. Clone or Download the Script
+
+Download the file **`rename_images.py`** to your computer.
+
+### 2. Run the Script
+
+In your terminal or command prompt, navigate to the script’s folder and run:
+
+```bash
+python rename_images.py
+```
+
+### 3. Provide Input
+
+You’ll be prompted to enter:
+
+1. The **folder path** containing your images
+2. The **prefix** for renamed files
+
+Example session:
+
+```
+Enter the folder path containing images: /Users/deepak/Pictures/Vacation
+Enter the prefix for renamed images: beach
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```
+Renamed: imgA.jpg → beach_1.jpg
+Renamed: imgB.png → beach_2.png
+Renamed: imgC.jpeg → beach_3.jpeg
+
+Renaming completed successfully!
+```

+
+## Supported Image Formats
+
+| Extension | Type                        |
+| --------- | --------------------------- |
+| `.jpg`    | JPEG image                  |
+| `.jpeg`   | JPEG image                  |
+| `.png`    | Portable Network Graphic    |
+| `.gif`    | Graphics Interchange Format |
+| `.bmp`    | Bitmap                      |
+| `.tiff`   | Tagged Image File Format    |
+
+---
+
+## Notes & Tips
+
+* The script **renames files in-place**, so make a **backup** if needed.
+* Files are renamed **alphabetically** (not by creation date).
+* Ensure you have **write permissions** in the target directory.
+* Non-image files are **ignored** safely.
+
+---
+
+## Requirements
+
+* **Python 3.6+**
+* No third-party libraries required — uses the built-in `os` module.

+This script renames all image files in a specified folder sequentially 
+with a user-defined prefix. The renamed files will follow the format:
+
+    <prefix>_1.<ext>, <prefix>_2.<ext>, <prefix>_3.<ext>, ...
+
+For example, if the prefix is 'photo' and the folder contains:
+    imgA.jpg, imgB.png, imgC.jpeg
+
+After running the script, the files will be renamed as:
+    photo_1.jpg, photo_2.png, photo_3.jpeg

+Supported image extensions: .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .gif, .bmp, .tiff
