Well, Ted, there are a number of other free products that I also couldn't get to. Just wanted to do 5 and I wanted to cover a range of programs, from more simple to more complex.
I do agree that XNView is a very capable graphics manipulation product and I'll try to hit it the next time around or in some tutorials.
Thanks for your note.
