Seeking fast jpeg viewer

[Franklin]

What Jpegs viewers does Pricelessware or anyone else recommend?

I have looked through the sections on pricelessware and the closest
section I can find to what I want is the Multipurpose Viewer section.

<http://www.pricelessware.org/thelist/gra.htm#Viewer: Multipurpose>

There I can see Irfanview and XnView. is too all embracing (I just
want still pictures) and XnView is ok but not for me.

Are there any other decent and FAST picture viewers?

(I am using Acdsee 3 at the moment.)

FireGraphic6 is *very* ACDSee-ish. The latest version has a call home app
that supposedly checks for new versions. I've posted the version prior to
this in alt.binaries.freeware. (thanks Bob)

Despite the name, SlowView is pretty quick - (only available until Dec
2004).

I know what you mean. A lag can be annoying when toggling through a bunch of
pictures. I refuse to use a laggy viewer. Last time I tried one, my wife
gave me a dirty look.

My favorite is Firegraphic. Although a fairly large program (~3.5mb), it's
very fast and clean. I suppose it has a read-ahead buffer similar to ACDSee,
because I can't press the Space Bar fast enough to make it lag. Even lagging
it by rolling the mouse scroll wheel is a challenge.

Is it possible to have Fireview show the jpegs in a folder in a line
by line view rather than a thumbnail view?

I found some of these hard to locate. So to help anyone else this is
what I got:

Lightning Viewer
Can't find this.

Inzomia (without an N)
http://www.izview.com/
Is not freeware. 30 day trial.
Based mainly on thumbnails.

imageN
http://www.pixoid.com/
Official download is from
ftp://ftp.kddlabs.co.jp/WinSite/win95/graphics/imagen_install.exe
Not really a viewer but will display one-off pictures quickly.

Centarsia
not a viewer but makes mosaics out of images
http://www.alhena-design.com/centarsia/images.shtml

Graphics Explorer
Can't find this.
Can only find a utility for mathematical graphics

Bob,

I'm becoming a big fan of Firegraphics as well, but have you discovered anyway
to stop it from searching for cdrom drives when you exiting the program?
Becoming annoying.

Hi Zo,

It has never done that on my machine. Not yet anyway.

However, I have had other software do that, and it was a Windows issue.

Do a search on Firegraphic, and look for a reference to your CDROM drive.
Since Firegraphic is totally portable, you can safely delete the Firegraphic
key or value referring to the CDROM drive.

Thanks for the reply. I'll give it a go.
