Description
XnView is a name that very probably means something to you if you manage images on your PC. It is one of the best viewers and if it is well known, it is because there is a freeware version.
Well, XnView Pocket is simply its Pocket PC cousin, a very complete program that is not missing much from its commercial competitors. The (French!) authors insist that it is a Beta version, but, after having gone through all the menus and tested images of a very respectable size, I could not even find the smallest problem.
I will not describe all the features, but it includes amongst others: a slideshow mode with the ability to create an executable, many different display size options, conversion between formats (JPG, GIF, PNG, etc), resizing, setting changes (contrast, luminosity, clarity) to name but a few. The authors await your suggestions to add to the program.
There is only a few icons directly accessible from the menu bar but this allows more room for the images. All the better since the menus are very complete and logically organised.
In short, excellent work in French (woohoo!) available for all platforms, even the oldest, MIPS & SH3, alas quite rare nowadays. To accompany a digital camera that comes with your Pocket PC, try this before buying something else: it is more developed than iPAQ Viewer, the standard on HP machines, and it may be enough for your purposes.
