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..

If you are like me you have hundreds or even thousands of images ever since you got your first camera, some taken with a normal camera other with a digital camera.
Through all the years you believed that until eternity you would be able to remember the story behind every single picture, you would be able to remember the names of all the persons on your images, and you would be able to remember the exact date of every single image.
I personally realized that this was not possible anymore, and especially for my digital images - but also for my paper images - I needed a tool to help me describe my images, and to search in the pile of images. This is exactly what KimDaba is all about.
With KimDaBa it is today possible for me to find any image I have in less than 5 seconds, let that be an image with a special person, an image from a special place, or even both.
There is of course no such thing as free lunch - with KimDaBa this means that you have to annotate all your images before you are set. KimDaBa is, however, highly optimized for annotating images, so annotating 100 images in 10 minutes are no way impossible.
