What Irfanview (and XnView) does, it does very well. Yes Thumbs Plus does everything that Irfan(Xn)view does but Irfan(Xn)view only has 10% of the features of Thumbs Plus and only supports a fraction of the file formats supported by Thumbs.

Clearly it's no contest between the two packages.

Having used Thumbs for all these years I know the true value of this product. The money you'd pay for Thumbs is a bargin unless you don't value your time. http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

There is no one program on the planet that does it all like Thumbs Plus and if there was I would have found it by now in my 20+ years of experience at this stuff.

The BEST is good enough!
