I just tried Irfanview. It's pretty good but I think I still prefer
ACDSee for general browsing and organizing of pics. I guess which is
best depends on what you use them for.

Did you know that Irfanview (I got version 3.36) does screen captures
to
open or direct save to various file formats of the whole screen,
active window, or visible client area (text area) of the active
window? click options > capture - (set your options)click start- click
the window you want - then hit the hot key.

also found: 

20/20 (??? it has an option to pay to remove ad banner, but doesn't
have one, nor does it try to access the internet.)- image editor with
lots of filters; does screen captures of windows etc., selected
rectangles, and auto scroll of web pages and other programs (notepad
at least).

imageN (freeware)- nothing special except it does LOSSLESS jpeg
cropping, I didn't even know that was possible. Great for cropping
spammed pics. If anyone knows of another cheap program that does this,
please let me know.
