Viewnior 1.6
Viewnior is a fast and simple image viewer for Linux.
The Eye of MATE Image Viewer is the default image viewer for Ubuntu MATE. It works great, but recently on my Intel laptop (HP ProBook 6460b) it started behaving a little different than it used too. When an image first appeared it was a bit blurry but it cleared up alomst instantly. This wasn't happening on my AMD machines, so I looked for a solution and discovered Viewnior. Viewnior looked similar to the Eye of MATE Image Viewer, so I decided to install it on my laptop. I compared it to the default image viewer and it opened instantly without any initial blurring. So I decided to make it the default image viewer on my Intel laptop.
