Under memory it set 36Mb to storage and 14 was used (by what???) and 26Mb for Program and 13 was used (by what??) I had about 12.5Mb free memory before I open that photo using Pictures.
The problem is after I got the out of memory error and closed Pictures. I got only 1Mb free memory left. I have to soft reset to get the memory back.
Does anyone has a solution to solve this problem and does anyone has a good recommendation for Photo viewing application.

It's not just you - I've experienced the same thing opening even smaller pictures off of a CF card. These were pictures I took on my Nikon digital camera that were only 600-700K in size - The built-in picture viewer crashes when I try to zoom in on a photo. To test, I even tried copying a picture from the CF card to Main Memory (into My Documents \ My Pictures folder) and it STILL crashes if I try to zoom in too much.
As for a recommendation, the Resco Photo Viewer seems to do a good job but its a bit on the pricey side @ $24.95 (a trial version is available tho)
Anyone else know of any better /cheaper (free preferrably?) photo viewer programs?
