  • Saved me a lot of scrolling

    I have an image heavy blog going back to 2015 and this has helped me organize the images with less scrolling. My carpal tunnel thanks you!

  • Крутой лагин

    Просто шикарно, перепробовал многие, то вёрстка кривая, то баннеры рекламные мешают. Здесь всё чётко, бесплатной версии за глаза.

  • Excellent as a Free Program

    A well thought out program that has the ability to organize images by date, name, size, etc. Not something you would need with a limited number of images on your website but if you have a lot of supporting images this is the best way to find what you need FAST. If you have a lot of images for products create a folder for each product and even sub-folders to keep your files well organized. The negatives are there but it appears that the many annoying limitations are installed to frustrate you into buying a pro version. I would like to see fewer in the free version. The two complaints I are both about price. While this is a very useful program if it not a complicated program and does not warrant a anything over $25. The second thing is actually making it an annual subscription would always prevent me from purchasing a program like this. Paying an annual fee for Adobe, Microsoft, or any large, complicated program where new features can mean a lot in time and cost savings. However, programs like this should never have an annual price. I understand getting money every year for something you sold 5 years ago but there are never going to be enough "through the year maintenance" to warrant an annual fee. Sell the product and if and when you make enough significant changes sell a new and upgraded version without killing the existing version. Giving me the option of paying for more if the improvements were worth the price. Microsoft offers subscriptions for Word for those people that need to stay up to date with the latest tech. However, for the average home user, typing a document has not changed in 20 years why should they keep paying? My rating is for your free version.
