: Before anyone gets too excited, it may be worth pointing out that as a JPEG
: viewer this program is not exactly "super fast".  I clock it at about half
: the speed of DVPEG, which itself is much slower than 386-specific programs
: like Hiview.  And IMGFUN's picture quality is decidedly worse --- looks like
: it uses a fixed colormap instead of a two-pass quantizer.

I don't know what's wrong.  I've Hiview running fine to view some JPG files
on a 386 with a ET4000 video card, but ImgFun is no go.  It works okay for
GIF files though.  Wonder why?  *blink*
