Graphic Browser1.0

Sure enough you’re anxious to check out all pictures taken with your camera once you get to a computer. Windows comes with a default tool for viewing, but it might not appeal that well to everyone. Luckily, there are countless third-party alternatives like Graphic Browser, which provide a neat environment, quick navigation, and slideshow player.

Can be used on the go

One of the main advantages is that the application doesn’t even need to be installed on your computer in order to function, which means you can use it directly from a thumb drive, even on other computers. Apart from a great deal of flexibility, portability also means the target PC remains intact, since registries are not a dependency.The main window can feel a little crowded, but it’s easy to understand, and use by individuals of all levels of experience. A navigation pane allows you to quickly browse through folders to reach the one with your picture collection, while a side panel enlists all detected pictures, shown in a dedicated preview area.

Add to favorites, and start a slideshow

You’re free to adjust navigation panels in case you want to get a better, bigger view of selected pictures. In addition, there’s an option which automatically hides the cursor in the view area, so it doesn’t get in the way. You can access a file’s properties panel, and perform some basic operations, like renaming, remove, copying, or moving entirely.Furthermore, there’s a built-in slideshow player with which to leave pictures scrolling at a custom time interval. You get to set the number of milliseconds with the help of a slider, and choose the order in which they slide in, with a random option as well. Pictures you want to view later on can be saved as favorites.

A few last words

All things considered, we come to the conclusion that Graphic Browser is a practical alternative to the default method of viewing pictures. Navigation is easy through computer folders, with options to save favorite ones for faster access later on. Although it’s not fitted with a full screen option, the overall impression makes it worth at least a try.
