Web Design Software Pick of the Week: Irfanview

Irfanview
Irfanview is a free (for non-commercial use) image viewer for Windows. What makes it useful to web designers is that you can use it to convert image file types to other image file types. You can also use it to create ICO files for favicons by creating the image in one format and ten saving it as a .ico file with Irfanview. Plus if you have a lot of images in a specialized format, you can use Irfanview's batch formatting to convert an entire directory. If you are using it for commercial use the license is reasonably priced at $12.
