Also Irfanview is a good viewer and Photo-Lux 3.3 is a basic, and free, editor which handles JP2 files. The tech is wonderful and can give excellent size reduction while maintaining quality. Additionaly, unlike jpeg, you do not loose quality every time you edit and save an image. Joe You can get a free IE plug-in at http://www.morgan-multimedia.com/JPEG2000/.

The web interface again is XSLT customizable. The “archivers” interface is client side, which seems to work out quite nicely. I thought I’d be opposed to this, but recently my use of utilities like ecto and the Gallery plugins has me thinking differently.
