gBrowser 1.6b2

gBrowser 1.6b2 is an extremely useful tool you should not miss. It is actually an image browser and organizer with no annoying databases or hidden libraries. What you see in the Finder is what you see in gBrowser – except gBrowser presents you with large, beautiful thumbnails and gives you the tools to easily view and organize your images. It includes thumbnail view, slideshows, an awesome multiple-monitor “Image Viewer” window, free and friendly tech support, and more.

This software is universal, Leopard-compatible, updated look and feel, and 10 to 40 times faster (you read that right!). Yes, it’s still in Beta, but it won’t be in Beta forever – even this first public release seems very stable. Send in those bug reports, though!

Major Features:

1. What you see is what you get - The organization and layout of your image collection is based on the same files and folders you see in the Finder. No obfuscated “library” or database.
2. Support for multiple collections - Do you have a collection of stock photos you use for work, and a collection of family photos you want to keep separate? gBrowser supports multiple collections, each with different settings.
3. Eases image sorting - If you need to sort the good from the bad after a photo shoot, gBrowser will let you quickly and easily mark which images you want to pull out.
4. Loves multiple monitors - In addition to being able to open your images one at a time the old-fashioned way, gBrowser has a unique Image Viewer window that can be set to open in a window or fullscreen on any of your monitors. As you browse your thumbnails on one screen, the other will instantly show your selections in full glory on the other.

Requirements: no special requirements.
