What’s new in version 5.8.0

  • Improved the full-screen display (slideshow) of directories and archives. A slider has been added to the controller so that you can freely jump to any position. Moreover, you can now see the keyboard assignments for functions in Help. In addition, fixed the problems that WebP images are not displayed and that the marked files cannot be deleted.

v 5.7.0 I use Toyviewer since years and liked it. v 5.7.0 doesn't recognise folders v 5.7.0 doesn't recognize previously used folders The developer hides his mail address, so I hope he's reading here. Peter

I am an old user of ToyViewer as you can see from my old review and comments of 2009 but I go back further than that I used it many years ago when I was using my G4 a lot and always enjoyed using it. This version is excellent and runs great on 10.8.3

Adobe suite in my professional life, but for images I want to share online via social media, this app has many ways to add effects, color, frame and drop shadow to digital images quickly and effortlessly. Toy Viewer's best feature? *every time you tweak the image, it creates a new one... don't like it? just close the image window and you've gone back to the last step. You don't have to create layers and hassle with flattening, etc. YAY!

SAVING PROBLEM When using "Replace Colors" on a PNG or Tiff image - although the resulting image is shown with the transparent areas intact - it is impossible to save it with its transparency. iMac Intel 10.6.3
