I dunno about that xnview is one of my personal long time favorites due to the fact its compatible with over 400 formats and is simple to use. It is also quite fast.
Interesting. IE sure looked like a copy of Netscape Navigator. Excel sure looked like a copy of Lotus 1-2-3. MS Money sure looked like a copy of Quicken. Windows sure looked like a copy of the Mac, which looked like a copy of X Windows...
hosting sites? wow how does that make it a good os for home use lol u dont get it. fine it can be faster sometimes but who cares if it cant even play games
Personally, I'm quite fond of Digikam. It does require a little work to figure out but it ends up being completely worth it. Overall it ends up making an excellent one stop shop to organize, search, and touch up large collections.I tried out F-Spot but after being a long time Digikam user I found it to be quite lacking in terms of features. I would also take F-Spot over Picasa any day. Picasa has the potential to be great for small collections imho, but for me it's a pain in the butt to manage my large collection with it, and has quite a 'bloated' feeling to it.
"u cant play most games not some gameswhat you ganna do when halo comes out come back crying to windows hahahha"We'll be running to our Xbox360's, since only Halo 1 was released for Windows, you dumb-ass. And Halo 1 has been around long enough that it should run fine under Wine or Cedega. I have no problems playing UT2k4 in Ubuntu, and I know others who've been playing WoW in it as well. You may want to get a clue before you make a jackass of yourself in front of millions of people.Oh, and you're grammar is atrocious.
The thing I most struggle with is getting the info (thumbnails and tags) into one database ideally. I have a lot of pictures. A lot on CD, and some DVD's full with pictures. I want to access the info of all those pictures, and if I select the pictures I want to use I want to be albe to find the CD or DVD. Am I the only one that has no sufficient space on my HD to store all the pics on? I used to have a very simple freeware solution under windows. Right now I hope that I can find such a simple thing under Linux (Ubuntu). As far as I know, none of the applications mentioned have a database with the information of on what media a specific original picture is located. If there is a way around this, can somebody tell me this? It is such an obvious need...there has to be a solution to this.

Picasa becomes slow when you get around to adding photos to it.

Does it really? I'm not convinced, and not willing to download it again for a test run.All the screenshots I can find show a linear folder list:<a class="user" href="http://enscreenshots.softonic.com/s2en/23000/23941/3_picasa_main.jpg">http://enscreenshots.softonic.com/s2en/23000/23941/3_picasa_main.jpg</a>That's not hierarchical... that's flat.

Meh, no ThumbsPlus! equivalent on Linux. And it does not run using WINE. That is why I am dual booting.

On Windos I use Faststone.... it's great, really really fast.
