Download FastStone Image Viewer 2.7

FastStone Soft released the 2.7 version of its Image Viewer today. This small and free program can compete with large commercial programs such as ACDSee and the also free programs XnView and IrfanView. It can handle most common graphics and RAW file formats and can perform some basic editing such as rotating (lossless for jpeg), cropping, resizing, red-eye removal, and adjusting colors, contrast, and brightness. Furthermore, it can generate a slideshow, possibly with music, and photos can be sent by email. The program is free for home users, but there is also a pro version which, among other things, offers the possibility to compare up to four photos at the same time and can be used on dual-monitor setups. Below you can find what has changed compared to version 2.6:

Changes in version 2.7:

• Enhanced the magnifier in full screen
• Built-in Screen Capture tools are back (they were removed in previous versions)
• Added Contact Sheet Builder (under Tools menu) – put/print multiple photos on one page. Fully configurable!
• Added Custom Sort – drag & drop to arrange thumbnail orders (For better performance, turn off the Preview panel)
• Now it is possible to drag & drop thumbnails into sub-folders within the thumbnail browser
