Review of IrfanView

IrfanView Review
Fast Freeware Image Viewer by Irfan Skiljan

What do you call a compact, fast and friendly image viewer that allows multiple ways of viewing and even editing images directly? IrfanView (pronounced Ear-Fan-View) is named for Irfan Skiljan, a very generous programmer from Bosnia. Irfan keeps his users happy by giving them the best Windows picture viewer available with regular updates that expand the program's features. New IrfanView releases have continued virtually nonstop since I first discovered the program around version 1.70, released in January 1996.

  • Irfan View is a small, compact, fast and innovative graphic viewer for all your image viewing needs.
  • If you are a home user and need a simple graphics viewer to view your family pictures or a professional needing a powerful multi-featured application, then this tool is your right choice.
  • It is fast, compact and innovative supporting formats like BMP, DIB, JPEG, GIF, animated GIF, PNG and so on.
  • A home user can get it for free with all its multiple features such as drag-and-drop support, directory viewing, TWAIN support, slide shows, batch conversion, and modifications, such as color depth, crop, blur, sharpen, email supports, print option and much more.
  • It has multi language support and also different options to preview your image collections.
  • Graphics are everywhere and this tool offers you a smart package for viewing them.
  • Irfan View the only graphic viewer with multi-page TIF and multiple ICO support

  • If IrfanView sounds like an image editor, remember that its just a modest image viewer.
    It's never going to replace a major paint program. It can't be beaten for speed, flexibility and ease of use on days when you want to sit back and feast your eyes upon your image collection.
