[Web4lib] Favorite Free Web Tools

[Thomas Bennett]

Don't forget IrfanView a great free graphics manipulation tool and has
other fine features such as creating a thumbnail HTML page from a
directory of graphics where each thumbnail links to the original file. 
It also does a good job of creating a slideshow on a CD/DVD.
