Batch processing tools which can resize, resample, convert, add a watermark etc to a bunch of images. In the interests of space, I have left out a few more advanced features and the more obvious ones.
I have covered some of the bells and whistles which I really liked. Check out the screenshot above which shows you the screen capture prowess of FastStone. FastStone Image Viewer opens at a pace that's a shade slower than IrfanView because it opens up on a startup folder.īut once it opens up, it presents its array of image features in a familiar Windows Explorer like interface. It comes in three download options (exe, zip, or portable). It is supported on Windows 98SE, ME, XP (32-bit and 64-bit), Vista (32-bit and 64-bit), and Windows 7 (32-bit and 64-bit). It is totally free for personal use.įirstly, FastStone Image Viewer (ver.4.2) at a download size of 4.5MB is more compact than IrfanView. FastStone Image Viewer is one of the best image viewers - it's a viewer, converter, and editor that offers something for everyone. A couple of them pointed to FastStone Image Viewer. There were some positive user recommendations in the comments section. But are there any similar image editors of its ilk a fast, tiny image editor that can hold up its own with the best of the class? It very rightly blows Windows Viewer out of the water. I have been a diehard IrfanView user ever since it came out.
