JPO is a program that helps you organise your digital pictures by putting them in collections. There you can browse the pictures, skip through the thumbnails, share them by email or generate a website. A powerful picture viewer allows you to see the pictures full screen with simple Zoom-in and Zoom-out with the left and right mouse buttons.

A fundamental design principle is that JPO doesn't mess with your pictures. They stay unchanged on your disk unless you ask JPO to move them somewhere or to delete them.

JPO is not a photo editing application. There are many excellent packages out there with which you can touch up your pictures. You can make JPO open such a program for you.

Richard Eigenmann from Zürich has spent the last 21 years building and improving JPO as an OpenSource project. He hopes you will find it useful and enjoys feedback.

Reviews

I was totally amazed when I discovered that people were writing reviews about JPO and positive reviews at that!

Technical description

The Java Picture Organizer application is a platform independent image organisation tool that lets a user build collections of images that they can then search, browse, show and share with others. An HTML export facility is available that allows web pages to be built from collections. JPO uses an open XML file format to store collection information. Picture groups can be exported to a directory for backups and sharing by other means. JPO supports a large amount of picture formats.
