Dear Developers!

First of all: Thank you very much for a very nice software. I really looked around - even tried some comercial software. The only software I came close to use was ACDSee, but I read a lot about instabillity and it wasnt quite clear to me, when a picture was in the database and where etc... However in the end I arrived at your software. It is quite nice to use (thought I prefer dragging tags onto pictures or pictures onto tags... but thats minor discomfort and may only be so for myself). When I looked for a software to organize my pictures, I was surprised how bad many of them are: I even tried picasa - which totally sucked! They didnt seem to be able to offer a simple to use database to tag and organize my pictures.

However I really like your software: Myphotoindex provides easy to use tagging, organizing the tags etc.. Really great! Even better than ACDSee, if I remember correctly.  For me there is only one issue: I find it hard to view pictures to decide wether to keep the picture with your integrated viewer. Your Software would be perfect if it would combine something like Faststone-Viewer with your database-tagging-features. I guess it would even be enough, if there was some easy to use magnifier-feature like fast stone: click-and-hold to zoom into a place. This way it would be easy to decide wether focus is right etc..

Not much content in this post... but this is because I have nothing to complain about! Keep up the good work: Youre great!

Hi,

Thank you for your post,

Currently the only zoom function is available through the full screen view(F11)

I can try to write a plug-in for magnifying the current image, I'll post a message if that goes well,

Asaf.

Hi Asaf!

Thanks a lot. I guess there is no hurry there: I have no clue if other users feel like me.

Best

Hi,

There is a new Magnifier plug-in available on the new Beta page at Codeplex

It still need some work but it does the basic stuff.

The plug-in will work with both version 1.23 and the new 1.24 Beta

Asaf.

Hello Asaf!

Thats a great first start... Thanks for the effort. Right now it is not that great to check out pictures very fast. If I may propose something: Clicking on a picture in the library should - if magnifier is used - bring the magnifier to the clicked picture (which it does) but it should bring it to a magnification. Maybe the user could say in the option, which magnification (1-time, 2-time etc.) is used. And the crop, that is shown should ideally been choosen by the part of the picture were I clicked it in the overview... Maybe I should explain: The thing about that would be, that I shoot about 500-700 pictures per session (I am into birding). So I have to do lots of sorting...

Thanks again.

Best

Svs
