OK, I'm a transient from windows XP and am now enjoying the joys of a stable windows release (Windows 2000).

But the one thing I do miss from XP is the picture viewer app that came with it

I've checked M$ and it's only available for XP

Does any-one know of a good alternative?

At the moment I'm using IE to view jpegs/GIF's etc.

Now I now that PS PRO and PhotoShop can open them, but what I liked about picture viewer was it was nice and neat and compact and loaded images instantly and allowed you to go back and forward through a directory of images, zoom in/out etc etc.

So I'm looking for an alternative. I don't wanna edit the images or anything just be able to click them and have them load quickly and then be able to zoom and go back and forth through a directory of JPEG's.

People who have used Picture Viewer will know what I mean

Any suggestions???

Acdsee is THE best viewing app I've ever used

Nice 1 PC_Arcade!!!

I'm actually just waiting for the last few k of that to finish

But thought would ask while checking it out!

NEVER USED IT

But always heard about it

acdsee is pretty good, u gonna luv it paul... good for the pr0n collection

I'm stilll using an old version of ACDSee.

Well you should upgrade Polityk, The Ne ACDSEE is exceptionally good.

However for my purposes I've gone with wait for it......................

Micro$oft Picture Manager (Office 2003) becuase it does just what I want, however gonna use ACDSEE for the main bulk of any picture organization or stuff i need.

Just for quick loading of files and browsing through Picture manager does the job!!!

But cheers for the heads up on ACDSEE!
