About
ThumbView enables Thumbnails and Tooltips in MS-Windows Explorer for filetypes that are not natively supported. It started with PCX, TGA, and DDS, but now ThumbView supports an amazing 19 image types, directly in Explorer! ThumbView is a shell extension (COM object) called by Windows when it wants to display a thumbnail. See the features page for illustrations. Or go directly to the download area!
Supported filetypes
.cut, .dcx, .dds, .mdl, .mng, .pcd, .pcx, .pic, .pix, .png, .pnm/.pbm/.pgm/.ppm, .psd/.pdd, .psp, .pxr, .sgi/.rgb, .tga/.vda/.icb/.vst, .tif/.tiff, .wal, .xpm.
Supported plattforms
MS-Windows XP/2003/2000. If anyone tries any other MS-Windows platform please let me know how it went.
Donation
If you liked the program, you can donate any sum you think it's worth. There are some, simpler, thumbnail support extenders out there. And they go for about $8. I've seen some copies of ThumbView going for $19.99. I chose to make mine free. Any donations will go to buy programming books and courses, as well as motivate me to make more free and useful applications such as this.
