Re: "Natural" viewer for .jpg files?

Richard,
If you use google's search feature and search on JPEG viewer, do any of the
listings look familiar or desirable?

Hi,

I recently install Nero 7 and foolishly allowed the installer to reset
all relevant extensions to its utilities. I just realized the error
of my ways when I double-clicked the name of a .jpg file in Windows
Explorer.

I remapped that extension to Windows Media Player (because that's all
I could think of), and it displayed the icon satisfactorily, but
surrounded with it a slew of stuff irrelevant to my little icon.

Somehow, double-clicking used to open a window sized exactly to the
icon's content. What viewer in WinXP/SP2 which does that?

I'll post a message to Nero on how to undo all those installation
settings, but it'll take a week or so before I get a reply. I'd like
to solve this sooner.

Thanks in Advance,
Richard

Hi Jim and Karl,

I'm trying to find a viewer that will dislay JPEGs (and maybe GIFs and
other image forms) in a window sized to the exact pixel dimension of
the image. All the ones I've tried recently have embedded the image
in a much larger window with menus, toolbars, etc. I may have to
write my own using C and the WinAPI or maybe a dynamic HTML script,
but I like to avoid the work.

Hopefully, someone will post a location where I can find the utility
I thought I once had.

Regards,
Richard
