Resco puts out some nice software like their file explorer, contact manager and pocket radio. One of their apps, in dire need of an overhaul, has been updated and is in the Alpha stages prior to official release. Please note that Resco Photo Viewer is a commercial application and this is just a preview of it. See new features and try it out after the break.

Here is Resco’s statement:

“For everyone that desperately awaits the release of the new version of the Photo Viewer, we have prepared an Alpha version. This version was not tested properly so far, so some crucial bugs might appear but even though this version seems to be pretty stable in normal use. Of course not all features are implemented so far but the most prior functions are. We will appreciate some bug reports if you will encounter some, but please don’t be too critical, it is only an Alpha version after all.”
