Samurai Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I've been using Windows Picture & Fax Viewer for quite some time now and I'm looking to see if there's anything better out there.I did come across this article on Wikipedia; LinkAs you can see there is quite a few to choose from. Anyone here have any recommendations? It doesn't have to be free so if you know of one which is pretty decent, do let me know.Many thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samurai Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 I was actually looking at both of those mentioned. IrfanView seems to be a very popular choice so I'll try both out.Thanks people :) Much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheelie4 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I second Irfanview. I used it for years as my favorite for viewing images. It's an amazing program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle2137 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I love Irfanview. Been using it for years. It is very fast, and lightweight, and only uses basically one executable. It supports virtually every format, and does provide some tools for tweaking image files. Xnview is another nice one, more features but a little more baggage.Irfanview ofcourse > http://www.irfanview.com/You have to study some tutorials on it, but when you know all the stuff you could do with irfanview?

alaindc Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 irfanview and xnview are both pretty good, but, most of the time, i use Windows picture.i have made some change, to the way XP show pics.Start, run, regedit, and go to...HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Exploreredit new dword value named "ThumbnailSize"add the decimal value of....for exemple 176, more if you want it even bigger ( 128, 144, 160, 176, 192, 208, 224, 240, 256)the default size is 128 in XP.you can also add a new DWord value named "ThumbnailQuality" with a decimal value of 50 or 100 (color quality preview) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
