Some things about it just feel a little awkward. Especially when in the full screen viewer. That could just be because I'm new at it. It's rendering speed for both thumbnails, searching and full screen viewing are excellent. I don't think anything else is as fast.

I'd actually be happy with Windows Photo Gallery if they allowed it to be a bit more customizable. The thumbnail manager on that is exactly what I'm looking for as far as navigation. However, it falls short on on other areas. The Preview mode on Windows Photo Gallery is absolutely horrible and disgusting. Well, perhaps not disgusting but I really hate it. It ruins what would otherwise be a good app. If they just allowed you to specify a custom viewer to launch instead all would be perfect.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20808681 Thu, 17 Jul 2008 20:48:58 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20787349 Edit This : ACDSee rocks. Been using it for years with zero trouble.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20787349 Mon, 14 Jul 2008 01:05:23 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20774357 normat : Last time I looked at lightroom I remember it didn't work exactly like I wanted.

I just tried to look at Expression. I have an MSDN subscription and I used to be able to download the Expression products. I tried out some WPF and silverlight development stuff a while back. For some reason the downloads are disabled on my account now.

So far the performance and rendering of ACDSee has been outstanding. It doesn't seem to slow down if you make a selection of thousands of images. Given that I could probably put up with some of the quirks. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20774357 Fri, 11 Jul 2008 10:04:02 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20773644 jayco437 : Have you looked at lightroom? More a a workflow app for digital photographers but it is has tags, allows you to edit EXIF, and I'm sure depending on machine spec it'll handle 30k images.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20773644 Fri, 11 Jul 2008 04:02:00 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20772777 overhill : I'm currently managing 100,000+ images with Microsoft Expression Media. It works fine for my needs...but I probably wouldn't have purchased it without the hefty academic discount.

I'm evaluating ACDSee Pro 2 now. So far the speed is quite impressive for both full screen rendering and searching/thumbnail browsing. It seems to have a few quirks though but the responsiveness might make them tollerable.

Now if someone could only make an app with this performance and date categorization and a 3D user interface like PicLens.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20772521 Thu, 10 Jul 2008 21:39:37 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20750641 normat : Every so often I go looking for image management/viewing software.

Basically, I'm looking for something that uses tag based organization, allows for easy EXIF/tag editing and can handle 30,000+ images with good performance. Picasa and the Vista Photo Gallery fall short of what I'm looking for. Does anyone have any recommendations?

The two main apps I use now are FastStone and Cam2PC. I've never found a faster or easier full screen viewer than cam2pc.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20750641 Sun, 06 Jul 2008 21:08:56 EDT
