Image Manager Shootout / Re: AcdSee like program
« on: September 15, 2005, 06:39 AM »


Given that  any compressed image (jpg, gif) etc is already compressed and putting it in a zip will probably not reduce its size why bother?

Is there another program witch can display pictures from a zip file?

I have so many passcards that the other day I was looking for one that I was not sure I had/existed. I figured it must have a search function although I did not see it (it's right there on the toolbar in the form of a searc box). Thanks for the pointer You just made me feel really dumb...

I totaly agree about opera which I bought, used it allot and loved it till I discovered roboform. Add to roboforms virtues that it seems to work with any program that uses the ie engine to display pages. After antivirus, roboform tends to be the second app I install after I reinstall a machine.



Another vote for RoboForm - it also gets better all the time with new bits and bobs added (like its customisable search engine in the current version).

Actually the application is so good it is one reason why Opera will never become a regular use browser for me (however good it is).

RoboForm works great in Internet Explorer and Mozilla based browsers (inc. Firefox and Netscape).

Also so far updates and upgrades have been free after the initial purchase of the Pro version.

Roboform is just so powerful in this area. I have never seen anything that even gets close. Aside from all it features it keeps each login it saves in an individual file. This means that if you need to sync several pc's (laptop, desktop etc) with the same roboform data it is trivial since it is not all kept in one big file that may change on both ends before the next sync happens. Add to that palm compatability, pocket pc compatability. Easily maintains numerous identities on and on and on.....

For some programs this can be a real problem. I am thinking of installers that are looking for their zip files and are told by the OS that they are not there and instead those names it is looking for are folders. I remember I put zipmagic on a clients machine and he ended up going through hell trying to install soemthing. Never put it on another machine since.

powerdesk and directory opus both also display zips as folders.
maybe all file explorers do this?

I used to love powermarks but this has been the year that I am switching more and more to doing everything online. Gmail is the first web based email interface that I consider fast enough to use for all my email. For bookmarking I just love www.furl.net .
