Good potential, but slow

Nice browser, but slow to render full size images. Shows non-hierarchical folder list, with small icons (unlike other freebie image browsers, which waste screen real estate showing huge folder icons). Back & forward buttons add a nice touch. The feature that puts this ahead of all other freebie image browsers is that thumbnails appear in main window. You can toggle the main window between thumbs & full size view and there's a nice metadata inspector which shows all your EXIF data. BUT, it does not auto rotate images when rendering full size (doh!), and offers no controls to rotate images, so portrait picture appear sideways. If the author could fix the rendering speed and auto-rotate images based on their metadata, this would be the perfect browser.
Does what it says -- very good

This little app works as advertised: it's a fast, simple utility if you just want to browse through photos in an environment like the normal Finder but with the ability to cycle quickly through large preview versions of the photos.
I have huge folders full of photos to sift through, and trying to plod through them in iPhoto makes me want to stab out my eyes. This program, on the other hand, works perfectly and makes the job quick and easy.

Nice and fast thumbnail display. Does not behave like finder though... - Version: 0.8, 5/20/2005 04:21PM PST

This is a pretty nice little utility. Most image browsers are way too bloated. Your readme file says you can browse through images just like you are in the finder. I don't see that it does, since you must double-click on any folder on the left to make an image appear on the right.
It would be ideal if it behaved like the Finder does in column view. A slide show feature would be a nice enhancement too.
Good show!
