Like other image browsers, IvanView displays and converts a wide array of image formats, including PNG, TIFF, and JPEG 2000. However, it packs a few surprises. One was mildly unpleasant, when the IvanView installer slapped an icon on our desktop without asking. However, the application interface is familiar and easy to use. Opened images and thumbnails appear in the main window beneath the toolbar. The click of a button starts a slide show of the currently selected folder. You can't pick individual images for a slide show, which seems like an oversight. On the other hand, we liked how the mouse scrollwheel zooms images in and out. IvanView's most remarkable feature is its array of filters and effects, normally found only in dedicated image-editing packages. These include Gaussian blurs, sharpening, lens distortion, and edge detection. Web developers will find IvanView a useful, lightweight companion to a more serious editor such as Adobe Photoshop.
What’s new in version 1.2.15
Version 1.2.15 adds support for EXIF/IPTC data and JPEG 2000 format.
Editing is USELESS with TINY preview of edit result.
Summary
Wouldn't recommend if they paid me! The preview window for making picture adjustments is way to small to be any use. The only plus is ability to view PSP images. For anything else, use IRFANVIEW which is FREE. What a cheek, even trying to mimic Irfanview's name!!!!!!!!
You want Irfanview NOT Ivanview
Pros
What's to like about a software company that tricks you into thinking it's something else? Clearly they want people to believe they are like Irfanview - they are not!
Cons
Aside from the fact that they put stuff on your desktop without telling you and do other things to your PC without telling you? Oh, and then they want you to pay them $25!
<p>
<p>Just get Irfanview for free - no ads, no alteration of your PC.... Irfanview is the program that's famous that everyone uses.
Summary
Copycat?

Is this a copycat version of the famous IrfanView?
