I'm working a little bit on the server today 12/24/19 - you may see it offline here and there..

Maybe we can all share our own personal Top 10 lists.

Here's one from me, my top 10 board games from 2019.  These weren't all *released* in 2019, but they were my favorite games I discovered and played in 2019:

10.Japiur: 2 player competitive card game; fast and clever
9. Fox in the Forest: 2 player competitive trick taking card game; fast and clever
8. Cahoots: 2-4 player (best with 2) cooperative card game, fast and easy and relaxing
7. Escape Tales the Awakening: Long escape room game with a dark story
6. Aeon's End Legacy: Legacy cooperative deck-building game (best with 2)
5. Rise of Queensdale: Legacy competitive non-take-that board game
4. Orleans: Brilliant competetive bag-building game with medieval art
3. Pandemic World Tour: Not a single game; we made a check list of every pandemic (coop board game) variant and played them
2. 7th Continent: Cooperative exploration board game with best sense of exploration of any board game
1. Chronicles of Crime: A masterpiece mystery-solving cooperative board game

This will be a small utility for browsing directories containing images.

I decided to make a standalone utility that could be used as a helper for other tools, like my other NANY (Automatic Screenshotter).

It will start out with a fairly simple feature set but there is plenty of room for improvement.

Key feature:

• Lots of viewing modes to find the one that works best for you.
• Option to show recursive contents of folder tree (with search filtering and sorting)

Note that there are excellent powerful free image viewers/browsers (irfanview, xnview, etc.), and it would be foolish to try to compete with these.  My aim here is to make a more streamlined, focus helper utility.
