Imagine

Description

Imagine is a free image-animation viewer for Windows created by Chun Sejin - a developer from Korea. It is a great alternative to many other free popular viewers such as IrfanView, XnView or FastStone Image Viewer.

These are just a few features: high speed viewer and image saver, extraction of single or all frames from animation files, the ability to show detailed information for images and animations, show Exif and IPTC info, show or hide transparency etc. The program works with many image formats (JPG, GIF, PNG, BMP, TIFF, ICO, CUR, LBM, TGA, ANI, FLI, WMF, EMF, PCX etc.) and it has support for digital camera RAW format (3FR, CR2, CRW, ARW, DNG, ORF, RAF, RAW, SRW, SR2, ERF, KDC, MRW, NEF etc.), support for numerous archive formats (ZIP, RAR, 7Z, ALZ, HV3, CBZ, CBR, CB7), support for high dynamic range formats (HDR, EXR, SXR, MXR etc). This is a low-usage resource application that will work on all versions of Windows. The program is also offered in several versions: Unicode for 32-bit, 64-bit and ARM64 Windows and ANSI for Windows 95, 98 and ME, each as an installer or a ZIP package.

Installing Imagine for the first time is easy. As soon as you start Imagine, you will notice the simplicity of its interface. Besides the traditional "File" - "Open" operation you can also use the well-known "drag-and-drop" method. Just drag one or more images directly into its interface.

Once you've added the image, start using its powerful features: view detailed file information and EXIF info. It also offers color corrections and color management. You also have several other cool features: batch conversion, slide show, batch rename, capture screen, creating animations and creating multiple page images. Each main feature also comes with a subclass of other settings so you have a large suite of options.

This program is almost perfect, it's small, full of powerful features and works like a charm. If you never used Imagine before, try it and you will be pleased to discover one of the best image viewers for Windows. It is indeed a great image viewer alternative.
