Most of you will have to save that and open it in xnview, unless you have a jp2 plugin for your browser. (Jpeg2k is much more suitable for many desktop shots than PNG or JPG. That same pic would either be a 900k full color PNG, a 250k reduced color (crappy looking) PNG, or a 200~300k crappy looking JPG. The JP2 image is only 169k, with hardly any noticeable loss in quality. It's really too bad JP2 isn't better supported by browsers yet.)


EDIT: For those who have trouble with that pic, try this one: http://drahken.t35.com/noname00-2.jp2

Hehe no. :)
I can't see a shit... unless if your backround is black, color scheme is black, no icons, etc. XnView can't view this file. :mrgreen:

Works fine for me in both 1.7 and in 1.82b3. I downloaded it from that site again to make sure it didn't get screwed up in the upl;oad, and it still worked fine. Looks like you've got a problem with your copy of xnview.

Many image viewers can view JP2 files these days, if you have any other ones on your comp, try it in one of them.

Same here, looks like a big black rectangle. See also topic "B3: JP2000 file displayed black".

I have no problems viewing Drahken's desktop with XnView 1.82 beta 3 or IrfanView 3.98 both work great.

This is interesting. It sure is windows, but how... What program you are using to make the windows go like that?
