When I used windows explorer with XP I could view images as thumbnails
rather than as icons, with Vista I can only get thumbnails by using Windows
Photo gallery ~ is there a way to do it with windows explorer ?

windows explorer can show thumbnails
go to control panel > system
then on the left it has a link that says advance system settings
on the advanced tab under performance press the settings button
there you will see a list of options. One of them is View thumbnails instead
of Icons
hope this helps

Hi John,
You can open Folder Options, and in the "View" tab Uncheck "Always show icons, never thumbnails" to see them.
