Any programmers who know how to write image viewing software?

Just thinking of doing up a simple slideshow software with some basic logic..
Anybody knows how to start??

Ie. I want photos to be shown with exif rotation done already.

Would probably start with 2 items
- libjpeg ( http://www.ijg.org/ )
- exif ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/libexif ), not sure if rotation field is "standard".. if it's part of some generic extension then it'll be painful to make it generic (camera wise) ...

Display wise, can refer to imagemagick display function : http://www.imagemagick.org/script/display.php , source code avaliable on their site..

Why not just use Breeze Browser?

imagemagick is good.
gimp may also have some libraries..
codeproject also has libs..

If I'm not wrong, Picasa does it too.

Cos I need to program a lot more logic into it... there are many image viewers that does exif rotation already but i need to put some custom logic into it.
