This version works without the Java Advanced Imaging API.
It only supports GIP, JPEG, and PNG images, doesn't have
support for thumbnail caching, and zooming/scaling quality and
performance are not quite as good as with the regular version.
Webstart Version
This version works without the Java Advanced Imaging API.
It only supports GIP, JPEG, and PNG images, doesn't have
support for preferences or thumbnail caching, and zooming/scaling quality and
performance are not quite as good as with the regular version.

If you're not sure you want to download and install JImageView,
the Webstart version is a good way to try it out.
