Windows Tips and Tricks by Cloudeight
Rummaging Through Icons Lookin' For
A Picture
Windows XP Home, Media, and Professional &
Windows Vista
Have you ever wanted to insert a picture in an email, or send a
picture to a friend and opened up a folder with lots of pictures in
it, only to be greeted by ten thousand icons with strange and mysterious
names? Maybe five years ago when you saved that picture, the name you
gave it made since, but five years later, how in the heck do you know
what "June05-2001" is? Is it picture number five of June? June went
back to Nebraska and you haven't seen her since. Or does it mean you
took it on June 5, 2001? If you're memory is as bad as ours, you won't
remember the pictures you took last June let alone pictures you took
five years ago. And if you ever knew anyone named June, and you knew
her in 2001, how do you know if those are pictures of June? Or pictures
you took in June. We all name things we think will help indicate to
us later what it is - but invariably what meant something to you last
year won't mean a thing to you this year. Know what I mean?
Let's get right down to it. If you're like
us, then you'll want a better way to find what you're looking for when
you're looking for a picture in folder full of pictures. Right?
Here's a tip you can really use that will
make it easy to find the picture you're looking for in a folder full
of pictures, whether their named June05-2001 or "Trebils Victory Party
On Shagmuffins Porch" (No apostrophes allowed in file names -
all you English majors out there!)
1. When you look for a picture in a normal Windows
folder, you'll see something like this - where all the pictures are
represented as icons. Big help huh?
2. The arrow in the image
below points to the Folder View selector button. Click the down-arrow
on the right edge of the button to display the View Options Menu. (Pay
no attention to the blotchy GIF rendering :-) )
3. When you click the down-arrow
on the Folder View button, a drop-down menu appears. Select "Thumbnails"
from this menu.
See? Told you!
4. As you can see, the icons are now displayed
as Thumbnails so you can easily choose the picture you want to insert
in your email or document. While these don't look a bit like June or
"Trebils Victory Party On Shagmuffins Porch" they do sort of resemble
skeletons. Anyway, you can see how using the "Thumbnails" Folder View
Option can make it much easier for you to find the picture you're looking
for, when your looking for a certain picture which is buried in a folder
containing dozens and dozens of pictures.
