Xyrano's Gallery Viewer

Antares · April 20, 2010, 11:25:53 PM

I've have been corresponding with Xyrano the last few days about this program and he's come up with a revised code that now makes this the preferred gallery viewer for me.

Now, instead of opening the image in a pop-up Explorer window, it opens the image with whatever you use to view images on your computer. I use Windows Picture and Fax Viewer, so now I can scroll through the images.

Check it out if your using the Profiler Gallery viewer, I think you'll like it better.

The built-in version is a bit weird, in that I am never sure where I can place the related window

Thanks for the heads up, I definetely thinks it's a good idea to open the picture(s) with the "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" and then browse them in there...

So, has anyone else given this new version a chance?

I have, and I like it!

Now, if only Picasa Photo Viewer would sort the images correctly, it'd be that much more useful!

I just downloaded Picasa and now this viewer really works great.

I've never been able to figure out how get those kinds things (plug ins etc.) into my computer.

Karsten keeps sending me directions but I don't understand those either!

If you want, I can walk you through the install.

I definitely like the screensaver in this program.

You just reminded me to install it

Works great! I love how it opens the default program and not those windows anymore! Makes browsing much easier.

Of course, I don't have many galleries right now, so might want to get back to setting up more...

@Kathy
Don't worry setting this one up, especially with help. It's more a matter of copy and paste then an actual install of software.
