GPicView is a simple and fast image viewer with low memory usage.
This little program is not aimed to be powerful or feature-rich. It's aimed to replace the default image viewer of current desktop systems. Fast-startup, low memory usage, and simple user interface make it a good choice for default viewer.
The program is inspired by the defualt image viewer of Windows xp and another GTK+ 2 image viewer - gimmage. Although looked quite similar to gimmage, GPicView has much lower memory usage and doesn't require libraries other than gtk+ 2. Even libstdc++ was not used.
