Product Description:

ToyViewer is an image viewer, which was developed originally on NeXTstep and then OPENSTEP. Currently it is for Mac OS X (Cocoa). ToyViewer has simple editing functions and filter services to other applications. If ToyViewer is installed in your Mac, you can see image files in PCX, PPM, Sun Raster, etc. on other Cocoa applications.

What's new in this version:

French Localization is updated. Contribution from Mr. Bruno Lapeyre.
Help document (Operation Manual) is updated substantially.
You can instantly make ToyViewer the default application of JPEG, PNG, or other image formats. Click the button "Make ToyViewer the default application..." in the tab "Formats" on Preferences panel, then the panel for setting is displayed. (Only for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger or later)
You can customize the contents of the pop-up menu on the image window that specifies the scaling ratio of the image. See the tab "Window Position" on Preferences panel.
With new widget "wheel", UI of rotation panel and PDF/GIF controller is improved a bit.
When a PDF or EPS image is rasterized by clicking the menu, the size of the bitmap image becomes the same size as the original image is displayed. Previously, the size was fixed to 100%.
When windows of images and tool panels are displayed, "Close Window" (command-w) operation closes windows of images first.
Rotation by 90º or 180º can be done repeatedly.
You can put initial settings in file "~/Library/ToyViewer/rc" as well as "~/.toyviewerrc" . Setting file "~/Library/ToyViewer/rc.i386" is only for Intel Mac.
BUG Fix: PDF files could not be saved in GIF format properly.
BUG Fix: Clipping of an image with alpha sometimes caused clash.
BUG Fix: The function to customize the contents of the scaling pop-up menu did not work.

Windows do not close automatically - Version: 4.92, 4/27/2008 05:01PM PST

MacOSX 10.4.10, PowerPC
When using "scan folder..." to view a folder with multiple images, as a new window opens with the next image the previous window is supposed to close automatically. For me it doesn't -- so I end up with a screen full of hundreds of image windows.

para modificaciones primarias de imagenes como crop, resize, y no abrir un programa tan grande como el photoshop y la consecuente demora me resultó útil.
me gusta la forma novedosa de interfaz con sliders y el hecho de que genera por default siempre un nuevo archivo con las modificaciones efectuadas (aunque esto último es confuso a veces cuando se hacen pruebas)
