VJPEG

I realized I was spending a lot of time waiting for JPEGs to open, and the default viewer on my system wasnt really hot with large files. I take a lot of digital camera pictures, and viewing a few megapixels in a web browser is ugly.

What is VJPEG?

I realized I was spending a lot of time waiting for JPEGs to open, and the default viewer on my system wasnt really hot with large files. I take a lot of digital camera pictures, and viewing a few megapixels in a web browser is ugly.

I have a good bicubic resampler that I use for various things, and so I made a JPEG viewer that uses it to show pictures when you double-click them. It makes them small, to start.

The idea here is "images as objects" so once theyre open, you drag them around the screen by clicking and dragging. Thats it. If you push them against the top or left edge of the screen, they "stick" for a while and resize to stay on the screen (that means you get live zooming.)
