Pictus image viewer

August 11th, 2008

Pictus is a fast, free image viewer. It is designed to be small, fast and just totally sweet. If you are content with your current photo viewer software you can still install Pictus and just let it help Windows Explorer show thumbnails for even more images. Development of Pictus is unfortunately halted until further notice, but it’s still worth taking out for a spin.
