Dont forget to mention that you have buttons at the top to go to the next 
image in that dir. Oh; and since it rescales the window to fit the picture 
the buttons jump from under your mouse, therefor it has this neat function to 
reposition your mouse on top of that same button after a new picture has been 
loaded ;)
