Which do you like better, IrfanView or XnView? I like XnView's tabbed interface, i.e. browser and multiple images in one window rather than IrfanView's tumbnails and images all in separate windows. However, IrfanView jsut seems easier to use, I dunno.

Currently using IrfanView. I like it, even though it reads thumbnails way slower than ACDSee. I dumped the latter because the program just got bloated more and more. I'll have to give XNView a try, though.

Of course. You are not to upgrade to new ACDSees. Stay with 3.1. Why this obsession with NEW VERSION GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL OMG MEWTWO?
If you need JPEG2000 support you can always do the following:
1. Install ACDSee 9
2. Get its plugins
3. Uninstall ACDSee 9
4. Install ACDSee 3.1
5. Use all the ACDSee 9 plugins that don't crash ACDSee 3.1 or become unusable for some reason. This includes the JPEG2000 plugin, which works great in 3.1.
6. Now unselect all the plugins you don't actually need, you don't want the program to load all these DLLs and waste your RAM and time.
7. Now you have the best Windows image viewer with the latest image support. This includes JPEG2000, late Paint Shop Pro files, etc.

Actually, the G stands for the G of the GIMP, which means GNU, and therefore, freedom. You macfags think it's more important to look good than to have freedom. That's why you spend thousands of dollars buying overpriced hardware and overpriced MP3 players that will play all the music Steve will let you rent.

I like Irfanview a lot. Fast, a lot of options, does its job well. Ran it on a 120Mhz Pentium and it gave decent performance.
However, I like Vix for organizing pictures with the thumbnail view way better, because it renders pictures even faster (esp. larger pictures), handles large numbers of thumbnails better in thumbnail mode, and can move files into folders with a single click (Irfanview wants you to hold SHIFT to move them instead of copy them, annoying when organizing over 5,000 pics). Vix sucks if you want to browse pictures in a folder though.
