Can you please send me (it can be by mail) the backtrace for the crash? For going back to the thumbnail view, just press the mouse on an empty space (it should work). About the license, I'm not quite sure it really matters in this case. As this is not an innovative idea (it is just yet another implementation) I guess a license like GPL is fine. But of course I can relicense the code if someone provide me good reasons to do so ;) Adenilson Cavalcanti » Thanks for the feedback Adenilson!

It SEGFAULTS here (when the executable is in a distinct directory than the photos). When I copy and run the app in the photo directory, it correctly creates the thumbnails (on /tmp/boiko_photoviewer) but only displays a subset of then. Maybe its related with the subset problem, but once I select one photo, I can't return to previous screen (is there a key combo to do that?). Another thing that would be nice is have a help with instructions (could even be in the command line). If you are planning to continue the development, maybe you could benefit from pictureflow (http://code.google.com/p/pictureflow/) approach (maybe making a new widget titled 'boiko-photoview'). :-) Concerning licensing, I think BSD or LGPL could attract more users because they are more business-friendly. The truth is that even GPL'ed code end up in commercial product (see gplviolations for example) and I known that there are some managers that are more receptive to contribute to BSD/LGPL projects. Best regards Adenilson Boiko

It is a very nice interface indeed. But for this kind of interface probably the program would require opengl to work. But we can still take good ideas from there :) Stefano » Yes, I have seen PicLens running. It is a very nice interface indeed.
