Best image viewer for mac ?

I absolutely LOVE preview, so I want to share with tons of details my method to use it more and more better than WINDOWS PREVIEW.

0:IT HAS TO BE TAKEN JUST ONE TIME. Open PREVIEW and CMD+, (comma) for open the preferences.

0.1:In general, choose "open groups of files in the same window". Perfect, you've done the difficult part 🙂

From now, every time you want to open photos like in Windows (😢), follow this easy steps.

1: In the folder with images, CMD+A (select all)
2: When selected, CMD+O (open)
3: If your default jpeg is PREVIEW and you have OS X 10.8.3, just click F for fullscreen
4: Enjoy your photos, right in front of you, slidable with trackpad or by keys.

You don't really need one. You can just select an image file and press the space bar to see it, or double-click it to open with Preview. If you want something more than that, you'll need to say what specific features you're looking for.

http://www.lemkesoft.com/ offers the most flexible in terms of formats. There are still some image files from pre-Mac OS X 10.7 days from Appleworks, which may require some workaroundsto be able to read.

Try this one... it's called Privcy

Can easily navigate using cursor keys. What I like is that as you move past the last image it automatically shows the next folder or zip. Ideal for quickly looking at pictures.

Also you can paint/airbrush pictures immediately...

What is the difference between Open all files in one Window and group in same window?

Anyways I'm still not a fan of this PREVIEW method as if you Select All, it also selects non photo formats and will open each one in a separate window. (eg. movie files)

I like Windows Explorer Image view .. you just open one file and left and right will scroll though .. can do it in full screen too.

It's a great irony that the worlds best graphic design platform OS X, doesn't have a good image browser.

The best ones now are:

Try the up/down & left/right arrows, either with a Quicklook window open (select something and press the space bar) or after having opened a group of images in Preview.
