Image Eye 7.6

Image Eye 7.6 is the lean, mean and clean image viewer with a nice clean user interface! It is a specialized image viewer - made for the sole purpose of viewing images as quickly and as practically as possible - and nothing else!

You don't get any overlaid menus, tool bars or other fancy but annoying things cluttering up the window where you want to see a picture an nothing but the picture! By default, even window title-bar is hidden when you don't need it, leaving just the image itself and a thin black border. There's also are many handy and practical user interface 'tricks'; e.g. hitting Ctrl-Alt-X to quickly close all image windows - just to mention one!

You are allowed to use this program 100% for free - there is no ‘trial time limit’, nor any ‘functionality limitations’. However, there is sometimes a small ‘nag box’ when you start it that is only removed if you pay a small fee to register it. NB, the registration fee is a small voluntary one time fee and there will never be any 'upgrade fees'.

Menus available in American English, British English, Japanese, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Swedish, Finnish, Dutch, Russian, Czech and Polish!

• High-quality 4x4 pixel resampling filter used when resizing images.
• Optimized optional SSE2 and MMX instruction set code paths for much improved speed.

2. Open image file dialog features:

• Image resolution and file format information displayed for the selected file.
• Optional image preview window for selected file.
• The last viewed image is automatically selected and the file list is scrolled so that it is visible (this can be turned off!)
• The most recent directories from which an image has been opened are remembered in a list and you can go back again to them very quickly (this can be turned off!).
• Open an index view of all images in the directory by pressing a single button.

3. Image viewer features:

• Launch the program and open images in multiple ways - choose the one that suits you best! You can launch it from the start menu, by clicking on a file in the Windows Explorer, or from an already open Image Eye window.
• Browse images in a directory using the index mode, or using the 'open image file' dialog, or from a viewer window using previous/next image commands, or by pressing down the mouse wheel (if you have one) and rotating it.
• Integrates with Any Image software for easy file format conversions.
• The image adjustment dialog lets you adjust brightness, contrast, sharpness (using a true 'unsharp masking' algorithm), hue, saturation, gamma, luminance, red, green, blue, negative, rotation and mirroring controls.
• Image adjustments can be saved and automatically re-applied the next time you open the image file - all without modifying the original image file.
• File operations: Copy, rename, move, delete, erase. The erase command will wipe the file several times with random data before setting the file size to 0 then deleting it (bypassing the recycle bin) - use for sensitive data.
• Function to capture images of the while screen shots or of selected windows.
• View images in windowed or in full-screen mode.
• Freeze mode sticks an image to the desktop so that it can't be moved until unfroozen - and it is automatically opene again if you restart your computer.
• Zoom in and out using high quality filtering.
• Set images as the Windows wallpaper.

4. Index features:

• Fast thumbnail index creation.
• The 'recurse sub-directories' command lets you optionally create an index displaying all files of all sub-directories.
• Optionally save thumbnail icons in a cache file on disk for even faster retrieval next time.
• Generate the cache automatically, manually, or not at all.
• Lossless compression of cache files.
• Selectable background and button colors, thumbnail icon size and spacing.
• Select just what you wish to view: Directories? Non-image files? Names, resolutions, file sizes, dates, extensions?
• Sort the index icons in several ways.

5. Slide show features:

• A slide show scripting language allows you to roll your own slide-shows and presentations.
• The 'Create slide show script' dialog automatically creates slide shows for viewing of all the files in a directory using various options - in case you don't want to edit a script manually!
