Mike. I understand what you are saying. For now I think I'm stuck with my clunky Windows Explorer solution which allows me to choose (by broad subject area) what photos go into which folder prior to import. Although a Qimage Lite user for a few years I have to confess (sorry!) to using Lightroom 1.4 for editing RAW photos. Lightroom's Import function kinda does what I'm looking for, in that it shows me thumbnails (pre-import) and allows me to assign them to folders of my choice. However, it then requires me to fill in a page of information before the import and insists on putting the photos into the Lightroom catalogue which often I don't need. So although I like the thumbnail viewer/chooser aspect the Import function is hopelessly over-complicated for my simple data piping needs. Hence why I use Windows Explorer. If only I knew how to program like you.....
Many thanks for your help and continuing support with Qimage. Regards:
Malcolm
I think most people use image management software post download for such a task but I do recognize that selective downloading would be a nice feature so it is on the list for a future version.

The other use I could see for the thumbnail views and selective downloading would help my flow. I move photos into a directory based on the Month and year taken (thanks for the change in 112). Typically I then open Qimage and look at thumbnails to auto-rename the newly transferred photos in groups based on the occasion. It would be great to do the move and auto-rename in one step, but many times I have pictures from multiple occasions on the same card so I cannot use the rename in Flashpipe since it has just one choice and without seeing thumbnails I do not always remember the occasion based on date. Being able to look at thumbnails and to selectively pick photos for rename and move would make it possible for me to do both operations within Flashpipe.
Thanks,
Dave
