>From my point of view having such large images on the browser detracts from its usability since it allows for less pictures to show up on screen at the same time, and therefore makes the browsing more difficult.

So my vote is still to > maintain the status quo. Yup. But, in my usercase (and my girlfriend's), the "v" key feature was not obvious at all, so we have been actually double-clicking photos every time we wanted to see them in detail and that makes me feel stupid now. Even now that feature doesn't feel quite right to me; maybe it's because of its appearance, maybe it's because of having to keep a key pressed or maybe it's from my experience with other apps (read Pidgin), but having a yellow tooltip appear when you let the cursor be is just the thing I'd expect to happen. _______________________________________________ F-spot-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/f-spot-list
