      Hi,

      I'm looking for a good way to manage my files I use for rendering.
      Currently, I make screenshots and print them out so I can work quickly.
      But, this system is not so flexible and it costs me a lot of effort.
      I tried Adobe bridge, but it can not preview a lot of file types.
      The most common file types I use are:
      JPG, PNG, PSD, SKP, 3DS, OBJ, HDR, DWG,...
      Does anyone have any experience with managing a library?
      Or have any suggestions?

      Thanx,
      Roel

        There are threads here regarding file / graphical / thumbnail viewers. Search for them. 'Mystic Thumbs' is maybe the strongest candidate.

            Hmm? I've installed Magic thumbs but nothing has changed. What have I done wrong?

              Is that for making you win at:

              ?

              Sorry. Is it this that you installed? http://www.magictoolbox.com/magicthumb/ That looks like a thing for adding code to a web page.

                sorry, of course I've installed MYSTIC Thumbs.

                But nothing happens to the thumbnails

                  You probably have to adjust some options setting for mystic-thumbs to get it to do what's needed ?

                    I see. From here? http://mysticcoder.net/mysticthumbs.html

                    Did you look through the FAQ page? Since I assume you bought it, you ought to be able to get support from them for it.

                      I've downloaded it here:

                      Link Preview Image
                      MysticThumbs 1.98 Englisch

                      MysticThumbs (Letzte Freeware Version) 1.98 Englisch: Die Freeware MysticThumbs zeigt im Windows-Explorer Vorschaubilder zusätzlicher Formate an.

                      favicon

                      CHIP (www.chip.de)

                      It's Version 1.98, the last free Version.

                      It shows tga, for example, but it didn't show skp 😞

                        I see. I don't suppose they'll provide any support for the free version. I wonder if there's a forum somewhere with a number of users of the program.

                          This http://mysticcoder.net/mysticthumbs.html is proper the author's download site - v2.8.2 is current.
                          There has a 30 day [?] free-trial [but with 'watermarking']... but then it's only $29 for one commercial license...
                          I have it and use it.
                          It's very handy to view what a SKP/SKM looks like in its folder, as well as the icons of all other image formats etc...
                          Works for me... 😕
                          Vista 32bit...

                            It semms to be, that only the newer version 2.0 supports skp/skm - files, then it's worth the money!

                              I use Adobe Bridge at the moment. It works fine too.
