Akhirnya Reinvigorate hidup lagi meskipun masih beta, gue dapet invitationnya.
Dulu gue suka banget ama fitur² mereka, simple dan akurat. Sekarang? marilah kita coba dahulu ya..

Sekitar 2 tahunan lalu gue cari image browser yang bisa gantiin acdsee yang makin lama makin bloated dan makin mahal . (gue pengguna acdsee sejak versi pertamanya, dapet dari cd CHIP Germany)
Sebenarnya ada banyak alternatif, seperti misalnya Irfanview, XnView, Slowview, Picasa, FastStone dll
Tapi setelah gue coba dan bandingkan, ternyata FastStone menurutku yang paling cocok.
Meskipun ada satu yang bikin gemes, yakni masalah skin yang tidak bisa dimatikan.
Dari segi kecepatan, gue rasa nggak beda jauh dengan acdsee versi pertama.. fitur²nya cukup standard. ada simple image manipulation, brightnes contrast, crop, screencapture, smartzoom, duh.. kayaknya musti nyoba sendiri deh biar bisa ngerasain sendiri keunggulannya.

Yang paling penting adalah “freeware” , jadi silahkan mencoba !
tinggalkan acdsee yang tak berguna itu!, paling tidak.. kita membantu mengurangi penggunaan software illegal di indo. oke?
