XnView Software

Instead of the icons in the tool bar which I never use I`d prefer to have text-buttons.
That means buttons that all look alike and have text discribing the function instead of a symbol.

This should be optional since not everybody will like it this way but I would and maybe also a few other users.

pixelart art is format artwork

and here is a program for mac os x specifically disigned for this

I would go for the Play-button with a rounded square around it. In black and white.
I find that would be even better than the black & white camera symbols.


I was originally thinking about the clapperboards when I posted those icons.
So I searched pics for clapperboard instead of icons and found a ...

Actually I got a worked out concept for a file manager and this particular idea is part of it.

I would find it helpful if empty folders would be shown as empty in the directory tree of the browser window.

This could be done by using grey as font color and/or by using an italic font.

Of course checking each folder for contents takes (a bit of) time so I would propose to give this feature ...

It`s the same with multi-frame images (.pps).

The proposal could work the same way.

I must admit that I didn`t consult the help files for this but I assume it`s not possible right now to turn pages of the PDF is ...

I`d like to add:

It would be very usefull if the bigger picture (or biggeST picture in case there are more than 2 identified doubles) would be always at the same position - on the left for example.
This way the user could just stay on one side with the mouse pointer and trash the smaller or bigger ...

The pictures are great for desktop backgrounds / wallpapers. High quality stuff.
It also features HDR-photography (high dynamic range - which is a technique of creating hyperrealistic images beyond the physical dynamic range of cameras by shooting 3 photos -dark, normal brightness, bright- and ...

Any considerations on open sourcing XnView?
