Version: FastStone Image Viewer 2.8
"Number one pick"
Pros: FS Image viewer is one of the most complete products of it's type. Along with it's image viewing functions comes a vast load of options and editing functions.
It caches and opens images very fast. Supports all major file types, including adobe projects. Has very useful toolbars, which pop up when you drag your mouse to one of the four ends of the screen. Upper toolbar opens mini browser (without leaving fullscreen) that lets you browse through folders and thumbnail files. Left pannel opens editing tools. It includes crop, rotation, resize, color, brightness, gamma editing and similar tools. it also has 10 useful filters, like drop shadow, red eye remove and negative. Other two panels are pan&scan navigator and file iformation box. it's main tool on left click is magnifier, which intensity can be set in right-click option box. All this you do without leaving fullscreen.
It also has some skin choises, if you don't like the overall look. Other options include dual monitor support, screen capture, wallpaper anywhere...
Given all these convinient options, speed of the program, UI, price, and overall useability, FS IV is without question no1 on the market
Cons: Tends to use a lot of resources when dealing with large pictures, wallpaper setting could use some minor work.
