ifranview - graphic viewer par excellence

This is another one of those cool program that does everything it needs to do and then more. Best of all, it’s free! (for non-commercial use)

irfanview started as a graphic image viewer but has now become more than that. It can do simple image manipulations like resizing, changing format, applying effects. With plugins it can even play media files like mp3 and avi.

irfanview isn’t open source. It is freeware for non-commercial use and for commercial user the registration/donation fee is US$12 or Euro 10.

So far in my search, I have yet to find any open source application with capabilities anywhere near irfanview. So I am recommending it in their absence.

This is an excellent graphical tool to have on every desktop.

What I like about ?

  • support large number of formats
  • quick preview
  • easy screen capture
  • one stop image functions
  • batch image manipulation

Room for improvement

  • more user friendly transparancy handling
