I recommend DOS viewers like Display 1.89a and DVPEG, which are also free and very fast.
The DOS viewers allow you to view (large amounts of images) instantly by pressing only the ŽenterŽ button.

If you also want high-color icons and the XP min/max/close/scroll buttons to go with Calmira XP, you can get those from my site's Windows 3.1 section. Look in Assorted Downloads.

for picture viewing i recommend IrfanView or XnView in Windows, and the excellent Sea3 in Dos. Find all of these in my Software -> Imaging/Multimedia section.
