    Requested Few things needed in Irfan View...!

    Hello folks, i just want to request some features which i feel an Irfan view is missing, although my default image viewer was Farstone, for a long long time now: i switched it to Irfanview, but it has something which i had to turn it down (i.e.,Farstone), like when opening an image it would take some time to open it, the time now taken is in seconds not even 1 sec , but millionth of a sec, and Irfan view is tad faster than Farstone, just for an image viewer the windows image viewer is good but has a lot of things that is missing.
    Like saving in differen format and editing the images, like drawing and croping. Believe me i have and tried many image viewer ( some welknown names like Ashampoo Photo Commander 8 & 9 and Zoner Photo Studio which i found to be bloated and buggy and few others), and the one single thing i want in any viewer is to be fast when opening an image, and if it has an option of editing an image even better.
    (Irfan view has feature like slideshow and a file explorer kind of thing which i don't use too much.)



    Few things that is good:
    1)Faster than Farstone Image Viewer.
    2)Has the option of editing images which is better than default windows image viewer.
    3)Good replacement for any image viewer. ( Not image editor )

    Few things i would like to request:
    1)It doesn't have the button to move the images clockwise or anti-clockwise. Yeah their are hotkeys, but an average joe would look for buttons more than remembering the hotkeys something to remember)
    2)More easy way of editing the images, especially like cropping and drawing arrows and adding text . More like Farstone Image viewer.
    3)To come in Portable version.
    4)The option of zooming-in an image when clicking on the left mouse button.
    5)OR the option of zooming-in an image by moving the middle mouse scroll button.


    These were the things i felt was terribly missing from Irfan view, and if these things are their i would use IV for years to come and would recommend others to use as well. I need it for viewing or opening pdf[IUSSUE][/IUSSUE], mov ,mp4, swf file and a host of other files. Why not have a single thing which it is very very good at, i.e., Image viewer and a little bit of editor, which should signify for which it is made for than have a host of other things which it is not good for, and people becoming all too confused.

    Before requesting new features, it would be better to use the program for at least six months. Why do people who migrate to a new program always expect it to behave just like their previous program? FastStone Viewer is great — I have it installed myself, but rarely use it. It looks nicer, but it is not as fast or convenient to use for most tasks.

    1) The average Joe should read the help file and learn the hotkeys — a few buttons are fine for frequently used functions, but if there are too many you waste time hunting for the right button — shortcuts are always faster once you know them and R, L, are particularly easy to remember and don't even need a modifier key.
    2) Use IrfanPaint (F12)
    3) Already available — just copy the executable to a USB stick
    4) What's wrong with ± ?
    5) Ctrl Scrollwheel will zoom in/out. Set your preferred zoom steps and method in Properties.
