and it's only a 60kb download.

The application is written in C# which means it requires the 22Meg .Net Framework.  So the app is 60K but requires a 22Meg support file.

Many users already have the .Net Framework, and once downloaded is used by all applications running on the .Net Framework. That isn't very different than VB apps that require the VB runtimes or C++ apps that require the MFC libraries.

The .Net framework is made up of many files. Saying Cropper needs a 22 MB support file, while accurate as far as the size of the download goes, doesn't fully describe its specific dependency situation.  Most of the used external code is in System.Drawing which is 456 KB and System.Windows.Forms which is 2,004 KB.
