In Windows Explorer, Select View and then Thumbnails.
I think this is what you are looking for. A great viewer is irfan viewer. Its free and available at www.download.com |

Let them know which version of windows you're running and it would probably get better help (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

I can't remember, but there is a way... it will give you a small preview on the left when you click on it... I always just used ACDSee:
get a program like ACDSee to browse thumbnails... |

Win98 eh? let's see, haven't dealt with it in years ... but, there should be a setting under "View" or something that reads something line "View as Webpage". if that is checked, every time you select a file (just one click, not double click), it'll show you a preview of the file on the left ...

Yes, I have that option checked. Under folder options, there is a "file types" tab that will let me change the program that opens the pics. Anything there that might help?

That is exactly what I want to do Andy. Preview a thumbnail on the same page. It now opens it a new window in full screen. |

what do you mean by "Preview a thumbnail" ??? do you mean "Full View", not preview (a Thumbnail *is* a preview)? you want more than 1 full view at the time? more than 1 thumbnail at the time? you want this? (thumbnails for each picture, still need to click each individual picture to view it full size) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-11-1113413293.jpg) or you want this? (full view of each picture, in the same window, where you can cycle through the pictures in a folder by pressing the forward/backward button) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-11-1113413310.jpg) or something else?
