DEDWARMO This program is only 824 kb! I love compact programs. But when Phoenix Slides scales up small images during the slideshow the scaling is low quality. There is no smoothing to the scaling so you see aliasing. Lacks some features that more expensive slideshow programs have, but otherwise works well.

ELMARCO Simple and efficient as said below. Works very well. Lacks : sub-folders settings, an option for file info not showing, and a simple transition effect.

ONLYONE-JC Absolutely fantastic image browser. It's fast, and hasn't crashed once (10.4.10)! My only suggestion is for larger thumbnail support, of sizes up to the actual size of the images being browsed. It would be great to be able to use the thumbnail size slider to fully preview an image, or series of images, without actually opening it/them in Preview. Keep up the good work! You've done a great job! | |

JSTRAIT Can't beat the price. Good well written app. Missing basic transition options though. Just a simple 'cross-fade' would be nice.

PLANET Phoenix Slides is amazing fast, the handling by shortcuts is very Mac-like and ergonomic. It offers lossless JPEG rotation, excellent slide shows even with exif-tags - and no annoying, growing cache like iPhoto- in short: The best image viewer for the Mac around. Dot.

NADAMAC I've used them all but Phoenix Slides is probably (one of) the best free image viewers. Thanx a lot!

SJJ_PUBLIC Phoenix Slides is fast and fantastic, but it is a tad complex for basic users. I wish it had a toolbar for slideshow navigation and zooming, rather than depending on keyboard commands (of course, keeping the keyboard commands too) and I'd like to see an option for it to automatically jump in the browser to a loaded CD when a CD is loaded, preferably seeking out the first folder on it with photos in it. That would be uber great. Also I'd like see it change the default behavior to be to *not* show the EXIF info Window. For my Mom and Sister, that's information they don't need and that just makes the program seem more complicated. Still, this is a fantastic program as-is and the price is definitely right. Much better than using Preview, especially when viewing pictures on a CD!

KEVIN MCKENNA Everyone is saying it, but I'll say it too: this thing is fast. Amazingly fast. Need a quick look into your iPhoto library? This is the way to go. The browser's mix of column view and icon view is just perfect. In less than 20 seconds I found photos I'd forgotten about from months ago. Free? You're kidding me! Definitely a must-have app for anyone's Mac.

some weird bug with my Intel Mac: in fullscreen mode, it freezes and there is no way to force-quit. So I am making a 2nd review to lower my previous rating.

IRONMAN I was looking for a shareware slideshow app then I reached this page by chance. It does exactly what I need. Excellent, for a freeware picture-oriented app. Many paying softs in this genre are not so good.

CASTLE Best and fastest image viewer for OSX. My only gripe with it is that you can't do an automated slideshow, and can't set how long each slide should play for. I can get it to do that, anyway :P

CASTLE Turns out you can make it show slides with a 1 to 9 second interval by pressing the number keys!

JOJOMAN Will, nothing is perfect.... This app uses quite a bit of memory, maybe that is why it is fast. I used app called MemoryStick to show my current memory status, and while using PS it is consuming every possible memory on my system. For me this is ok, because when I browse photo, I like to see it quickly.

JOJOMAN The fastest image viewer on Mac. Compared to FFView, Comicbooklover, Preview, JView. This is perfect for people who keeps pictures in simple directory structure and want to move within a large set of photo quickly. If PS provide the feature to show only one thumbnail instead of the whole directory, it will be even faster. Speed of displaying photos on my USB connected HD is just as fast as the ACDSee version on my PC. Good Work

NIBAQ This thing is fast, I am quite impressed with it, tried most of the image browsers (xsee, ImageBrowser, imagebrowser, cocoviewx) and this one just impressed me on speed, it loads the thumbnails fast for imaging, you can change the thumbnail size, get exif data. But it was the speed that did for me, quick and responsive to view many directories for that one picture.
