Ok, after many years of trying to do the switch to Linux I'm nearly there, I've been using Gimp (and other linux friendly alternative software) for many months now, I installed the Xandros distro and am very happy.

Except one issue.

I use ACDSee (v6 standard) under windows, I love the way that it's very fast and allows be to do basic editing, I've played with a few alternatives under Linux but nothing that really compares (IMO)

Anyone got any ideas?

Have you tried any of the Windows emulators like WINE?

I've looked at using WINE and will use it as a last resort, preferably though I'd like to use native apps

You might want to try GTKSee, a Gnome-based clone of ACDSee :o) If you're looking for linux and/or opensource software, one of the best places to start looking is freshmeat.net - all I did to find GTKSee was search for "image browser" there, and I got 42 possible software projects.

I tried freshmeat, nothing that really fits the bill (or is any better than the 'digikam' native solution).

I'd even go for something commercial if it were available. I know that there are other Linux users on DPC, I'm just wondering what they use, maybe I need to reconsider my processes.
