v3.1.4 Review

Big kudos to you for this amazing piece of work!
I had to open up a github account, just so I could write here! Again, really appreciate your hard work!

Overall, Quick Picture Viewer is a hidden gem, which is really less known to the majority who are looking for an alternative.
Right now, I am using the good'ol windows picture viewer from windows 7 on my windows 10 2004; it works really well and is light weighted, but isn't able to open few formats and has hiccups. So, I was looking for an alternative, after going through 5-6 alternatives, I landed on quick picture viewer.

So comparing it to the old windows 7 picture viewer. The old picture viewer eats up 16MB of RAM, while for the same picture quick picture viewer eats up 29 MB. When I scroll through numerous pictures at once, the highest peak RAM consumption old picture viewer had was 60MB with 12% CPU usage; while stopping on the last picture, it was eating around 30MB RAM. In the same scenario, quick picture viewer had a peak of 80MB with 12% CPU usage and on the last picture it was around 50MB. Hence, its always eating up around 10-20MB more ram compared to the old picture viewer; which isn't bad, but having it reduced to 5-10MB would be really nice.

I would definitely recommend quick picture viewer to my friends!
**But, before I end, I just had 2 suggestions.

1. While zooming in and out, can the focus be the center of the picture, instead of the top right corner? Because that's how majority of us are used to, when zooming in and out anything and everything, the focus is always the center.
2. While quickly going through multiple pictures and when I press one of the arrow keys multiple times to skip pictures, the old picture viewer shows a preview of the pictures I skipped. Whereas, quick picture viewer, takes 2-3 seconds and directly shows the picture I skipped to instead of the pictures that were skipped. So, if there is a preview, I could know which pictures I skipped.**

That's all! Thank you again for your hard work!
