NAOH  This comment isn't directly related to the software or its functionality.

Instead, I want to mention that I just noticed that the name appears to be a reference to William Gibson's book 'Pattern Recognition'.

Thumbs up for an excellent literary reference!

CHAS_M  What does this app do that Preview does not do?  
(Version 1.3.1)

JEDIK  Does what it says. Suggestions for improvement:

- play animated GIFs

- double-clicking image open it in another window and/or (configurable) external editor

- show pic info (format, dimensions, EXIF, etc)

BLAIR  Great little image viewer. Very fast, and the keyboard navigation for moving through your directory structure really rocks (hint: just use the arrow keys).

My only suggestions for improvement would be to try using standard toolbar buttons, and include a button for setting the current image as your wallpaper (which is currently buried as a contextual menu from the image selection pane).

ACCURA  I found Footage Head when looking for an app to view my pr0n images in. I now use it for all my image viewing. Thank you, it is a perfect example of a good image viewer.

TRIBULATIO  I am new to Mac - switched from PC this week - and was looking for a simple tool in order to view rapidly and easily archived pictures transferred from my PC. Footagehead did the job. It is simple, but can prove useful for that simple task - for free.
