nice clean user interface.

Feature high-lights:
- The only image viewer you need for viewing and
browsing images.
- Clean with no unnecessary menus and toolbars
wasting your desktop space.
- Uncompromising with the image quality.
- Small and very fast, highly tuned code.
- Reads all common image file formats.
- Easy to rotate, mirror, zoom, pan, and adjust
contrast, brightness, sharpness, hue, saturation,
gamma, et c.
- Image adjustments can be saved non-destructively
and automatically reapplied when you next open the
image.

thumbnail-icon creation.

languages.
- Freeware!

Features for the tech-nerds:
- Asynchronous file I/O allows decompression to start
before file reads finish.
- Speculative decoding & caching of images in the
background.
- Data parallelism exploitation through the use of
SSE2 and SSSE3 SIMD vector-instructions
- Task parallelism exploitation through extensive
multi-core support.

assembly code or using compiler intrinsics.

Catmull-Rom interpolation.
