Tested this out -- really fast. Also simple and fairly intuitive. Has most of the functions you would want, can look inside ZIP files, and view exif data easily.
Wishlist:
* Would like it to go back to the last directory I viewed. Right now it will always jump back to the USER\My Documents folder.
* Weirdly if you want to change the background of the view window, you also have to change the background of your desktop -- I know that's supposed to be like a preview function for if you want to add wallpaper, but I wish they were independent.
* The thumbnails window didn't seem to work. Not sure if that's just me.
This might be out of the program's scope but ...
* Crop and resize capabilities
* Some default quick-compression sizes
* Batch conversion tools
Essentially I'd like to see a lot of the functions of XnView and FastStone in this one so I could take it to work with me (those are non-commercial use only).

Drag & drop a folder onto the gui. To view thumbnails of another folder, right click on the thumbnails window and choose "clear all", then drag & drop another folder.
