QVV is image viewer based on TrollTechs Qt Toolkit! QVV is small, simple, handy ( last one is IMO ). However the sources are there -- you can come up with your own opinion.

NOTE: QVV 0.16 AND LATER VERSIONS REQUIRE QT 3.x!

QVV allows you to browse directories with lynx-like interface, view images browse next/prev image while showing image window or in the directory list, multiple image windows and directory browsers can be opened/closed with a single key, panning easy with arrow keys or mouse and few other things as well.

QVV is only few hundred lines of source code and handles as much file formats as Qt does -- JPEG (all sorts of jpegs that jpeglib supports), PNG, GIF, XPM and more..
