yeh pretty shit really

another reason why people shy away from linux as it feels SO half baked, i hate this issue thats plagued linux and many other issues for decades!

So, is there a hack for this?

Thankyou. Was unable to update it successfully so i adopted to go for PICASA and is perfect for what i needed in the first place. sudo apt-get install wine winetricks && cd ~/ && wget http://dl.google.com/picasa/picasa39-setup.exe && wine ~/picasa39-setup.exe && env WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.tmp ...

thankyou

Thumbnails are a pain and do not help me find anything. I switched off thumbnails in Nemo using the Nemo settings. PerforMANCE!!! Pix is a better application for browsing directories of images.
