Hello, thanx to all for the feedback and help. @David
This sounds nice, i will check it out. I'm trying now to create a automatic thumbnailer ( like http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/OpenDocument_Thumbnails http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/_attachments/OpenDocument_Thumbnails/opendocument-thumbnailer http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/_attachments/OpenDocument_Thumbnails/opendocument.schemas ) and if it done i will write a small plugin called "Browse Images" that will open Nautilus with the directory of the opened image. If none image is loaded it will open the home directory. My Script generates at the moment only for PSD, RGB and XCF files thumbnails, that i have toch change too. - |\/\/\/| | | | (O)(O) Bart.
