Compupic / ACDSee / others. - GoFuckYourself.com

I have a ton of images.. over 1/4 million... closer to half a million if not more.

So I am sorting and deleting images all day. I am wondering what software people use..

I used to compupic for a couple of years... and love it.. but is getting old..and the database has a 1 gig limit so ever couple of days I am trashing the DB.

ACDSEE.. (* well I am using the photo manager 9).. it is ok.. it has some nice features like I can thumbnail a drive or a folder before I got to bed.. and wake up and it is done. however can be kinda of slow.. and there is some database tools that have never worked. it is just OK.

I test lightroom, I just have too many images for that.. and bridge..

suggestions?

I use Irfanview, but don't know if it will handle large numbers of files like you are talking about. It's free, cant hurt to try.

FastStone Image Viewer only: http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm - everything else is just a crap.

We use Firehand Ember Pro (been usin' it for years and years).

I dislike viewers that are bloated with too many features that slow it down.

The FastStone viewer is also good, I occasionally use it as well.

I just got Picasa, it's free from Google. I really like it. Very fast, and pre-loads thumbs like ACDSee.

I just use ACDSee and it works pretty well for me.
