I often click on LARGE TGA files and have explorer
crawl, pause, or die. DevilPack dies on large TGAs
(out of memory error) anyway. I often don't need
thumbails for such large files, so it would be nice to
be able to set an upper limit on thumbnailed files--for
example, don't generate thumbnails for >100MB. I've
got some TGAs that are over 700MB in size, and it kills
explorer (not only in thumbnail view)

    Hmm DevIL does have some problems with TGA's but I wasn't
    aware of the out of memory issue. Thank you for pointing it
    out. I never thought there were so large images so I never
    thought of a upper limit. I'll add it to the regular ThumbView,
    but I think I'll leave it out of ThumbView Lite (since it's
    supposed to be so simple it can't have any "settings").

    If you don't agree please let me know. Your feedback is very
    useful.

    Thank you

    I'm having a similar problem. When I browse a folder with too many PSD's (over 100 for exemple), Explorer crash. Any tip I can use, I'm using ThumbView Lite since I failed to make the normal version work (i got error during the files format installations)

    Thank you for your great program,
