Digital photography is growing in popularity by leaps and bounds. The quality and selection of cameras is increasing while their prices decrease. There are also many powerful digital photo software suites available for editing those photos. That is all well and good, but many of us don't want to fire up that super powerful photo editing suite just to view the photos for editing.
Say hello to IrfanView. IrfanView has been around for a few years now and has really been making a name for itself as an image viewer. A brand new version, 3.21, has just been released. This little utility is a compact image viewer and a whole lot more. IrfanView supports just about every image file format, including animated images, as well as multimedia and sound files, either directly or through plugins. With the appropriate plugin, IrfanView now even supports Flash movies and MP3s. More than that, you can also edit images directly in IrfanView.
