Xee is a simple, lightweight, and fast program that displays images. It is a replacement for the Preview application provided by Apple with OS X and best of all, it is free.

Features:
-Universal Binary
-Support a large number of image formats
-Rotation and Cropping for all image types
-Slideshow ability
-Steps through images in a folder

What I like about Xee is when you open a single image from a folder filled with other images you have the ability to step through the entire folder and view all the images within. This feature is much like Windows image preview and is a serious lacking on Apple’s part. It is also very lightweight and springs up to life quite fast. The interface is very basic with buttons to help you navigate and others to do simple flipping and rotating of images. At the bottom, you are presented with a bar the displays relevant information about the image you are currently viewing. It includes the number of the image, the zoom percentage, the resolution, the color profile, the size of the file, and the name and date of the file.

Overall, Xee is an excellent replacement to the Preview application and is quite fast. It is very simple and provides a lot of important information about the image. Best of all is its ability to brows an entire folder of images and its simple editing features.
