I know its very off-topic here but is there any way in Irfanview to
"smudge" a portion of a picture? I know MS photo editor has this but
I would prefer to use Irfanview. Thank you.
 
Does any other free viewer aside from MS photo editor have the
function of smudging? Thanks again

Try this

"Top 7 Free Photo Editors for Windows"
http://graphicssoft.about.com/cs/imageediting/tp/freephotoedw.htm

I don't think Irfanview can do this - it works on the whole image. If you
want to blur a square or rectangular part of the image you could crop the
image to just that part, then blur the whole image save it as a new file.
Then overlay the blured part back on top of the original using MS Paint.
 
In IrfanView, you can select a square or rectangular area with the mouse and
then use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+E to open the Effects browser. You can then
apply the Blur or Pixelize or Explosion or Median filter, etc., to your selected
area.

| thanks for your help

As long as we're on Irfanview, is there any way to tell it that when
it has a changed picture and I close the program, it should present
me with the usual Yes/No/Cancel dialog?

I haven't been able to find that in Options >> Properties anywhere,
and I can't count the number of times I've forgotten to save a
picture after editing it, then closed the program and lost my
changes.

Thanks for responding, but that doesn't relate to my question.

I asked how to have the program give a warning message when closing
with an edited unsaved picture.
 
Stan,

I wasn't ignoring your question. Your previous post did not show up on my radar
screen for some unknown reason.

Regarding your question, I see no way of adding that feature in version 3.97.
Maybe a suggestion to the author, via e-mail, would do the trick.

Yes, I guess that's the next step.

That's because it was contained in your second posting.
