ThumbsPlus 8.0 Beta 6 is a program that will let you manage your images. It will create thumbnails of the images stored in your drives, allowing you to catalog and edit your images easily. The program´s interface will show you the tree of folders on the left. Clicking on any folder will cause the program to show its contents on the central panel. You will see a thumbnail for every image in that folder. Clicking on any thumbnail, the program will show you on the right panel some information about the selected image, such as its name, size, dimensions, file date and date when the image was taken. You will also see the metadata that the image stores in it. Right-clicking on the selected image you will be able to access a lot of features that will let you modify the image in every aspect. You can also create galleries by choosing images, delete, rename, or move images, send them by email or print them. ThumbsPlus runs on Windows 2000, XP, 2003, 2008, Vista and Windows 7. It can be installed and run in twelve languages. ThumbsPlus Beta 6 was originally intended to expire on September 30th, 2009. You can extend the beta period by applying the patch provided by the author at http://www.cerious.com/binaries/cerious/Patchbeta6.exe.

Have used this program for years alongside Picasa and GIMP with no problems at all.
I see ThumbsPlus and Picasa as complementary. Picasa has some indexing tricks e.g. face matching, that ThumbsPlus does not but overall can't come near ThumbsPlus.
It's a very good, stable piece of software.
Coli U. Been using this prog since it was first released and have always found it perfect for my requirements.
docbopp ThumbsPlus equals perfect pictures.
