(Qt Graphic Viewer)
A fast, simple, good looking, yet powerfull and highly configureable image viewer.
PhotoQt v1.4 comes with a large amount of changes and improvement. Nothing was left untouched, numerous bugs were fixed, the complete interface re-structured and re-designed. It has been a little while since the last release, but I'm sure it was worth the wait!
