Mac Image Viewers
Most Mac users will like to use Preview as their image viewer. Most users will also use iPhoto. But few of us, feeling not satisfied with these built-in applications, seeks for better image viewers.
As a matter of fact, there are many Mac image viewers built by developers, such as Xee, CocoViewX and Sequential, just to name a few. After having fun with some of them, I've come up with this list of Mac image viewers to share with you.
Let's see what are these Mac image viewers.

I was using Xee as image viewer. But ViewIt is just awesome. Buttons are ugly, but i was looking for a browsing throught different folders. Actually Xee can't read pictures inside a folder. I mean, if i'm looking pictures inside a folder A that contain a folder B, i can't read pictures inside the folder B. Thanks for this post, i'll use ViewIt

Great Article! Lot of viewer around. I'm using GraphicConverter X since a long time. It's an incredible photo viewer and image tool. Thx. ;)

I'm a fan of using JustLooking. But lately I've fallen in love with Apple's built-in QuickLook, especially when you select a bunch of images and go to fullscreen index mode.... It looks and works so nice. I'm still trying to find a way to get to that mode in one step.

Found Xee very useful for viewing png IM icons in live action BUT it also converted all my thumbnails into Xee icons so there's no way to preview images in a folder.

As Pat mentioned, XnView has been around for a while, it's a ideal cross platform image viewer solution.

I would recommend Xee and Sequential. The first one is very lightweight and neat, the latter one has an excellent hotkey support and a better gui. Actually I'm using both. For image browsing by thumbnails I prefer finder and quicklook in Leopard.

Honestly, I've always been more of a fan of just putting the monitor to sleep than screen savers. Sure they look pretty awesome, but if you're sitting at your computer, are you really doing so with the screen saver on?Good luck for the dates. It has been some times since we last heard about the next tour. I hope they can run it accordingly now.ADiIQiwuoaE6CJd3

I am using Xee right now, and it's really great! Although, it doesn't allow complex editing unlike Adobe PS. Are there any applications available for MAC that functions like PS? Thanks in advance! Dee - Woodworking Projects

I personally prefer to use Xee. I find it lightweight, fast and convenient. As a hobbyist photographer, I need a serious tool for image viewing and management, with a sleek and powerful interface. I just love the fact that it is very fast, and uses less memory than most other image viewing tools. If anyone here knows of an imageviewer that is better than Xee, holla back at me. :) - BBQ Islander of BBQ Islands
