I run a big screen too (1600x1200) but I usually have so many windows open
doing all different things that screen real estate is still usually pretty

what you mean about preferring larger, because it shows more detail and
doesn't look as blurry as the thumbnails.

On that note, I just put in an image-sharpening filter and also told it to
create optimized progressive JPEGs, so now the QuickSet images load even
faster and look much, much clearer than before.

How does a range search (for example "45xx" or "62xx") or a single-set search
(for example "4554" or "6232") look now? . . . Better? . . . Worse?
