On site download link doesn't work (anyway, as it is on github, I found that link: https://github.com/nyam1003/imagine)

This is impressively fast when it comes to handling DDS files.

@Cornflower: Seems like the 32-bit ZIP is also available now. I have updated both download links.

Cornflower on 2023-12-10 08:43

Also note that virtually every new release updates some plugins, and version 4.65 is no exception. Most users may want to go to https://www.irfanview.com/plugins.htm and download the 32- or 64-bit package, and dump them into the Irfanview Plugins subdirectory.

Cornflower on 2024-04-05 13:40

I notice in 4.67 that the OCR plugin is updated. It suggests using the Tesseract OCR, which I suspect is not portable. When I test it I will be looking to see if it can be made portable, and if it works with 32-bit Irfanview (there are a number of limitations with the 64-bit Irfanview so I am staying there).

I use it since W98. Very easy copy/paste/crop/resize/scan/print/sharpness and many other things.
Dont have a pen/filler. Not a full img editor but very easy and has many options.
Fully work is done with xnview, mspaint(for pen) and PaintDotNet for layers.(except for the layers that xnview does not have, everything is easier with xnview)

JudyGarland on 2020-10-22 05:38

XnView is not Windows XP compatible anymore. In order to make it work with XP, replace libwebp.dll (plugin folder) with with webp.dll (xnview.com/download/plugins/webp.zip).
cheers

juverax on 2021-12-13 13:30

Softpedia: https://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Graphic/Digital-Photo-Tools/cPicture.shtml
has an entry for an application named cPicture v.3.8.6 that is Freeware and Donationware

Web Site: http://cpicture.thecloudsite.net/

VirusTotal Score:
cPicture.exe 2-70
cpp_tiff_png.dll 1-68
All the other files are clean

Assuming that cPicture is not harmful
Unzip and run cPicture.exe (It seems that it is a no install app)
This application is very fast.
It leaves a couple of keys in the registry.

The cPicture v.3.8.6 and cPicture LE v1.6.x seem to be developed by the same developer(s).

cPicture now at version 3.8.8 and it is freeware/donationware.
