Folder Photos: Showing Thumbnail Photos Rather Than IrfanView Icons ?


Hello,

I have a Folder on my Desktop in which
I have placed many photos.

The listing shows up just fine, and if I click on one of them, it opens perfectly.
No problems.

But, the listing in the Folder only shows a small IrfanView icon for each of them, and then a name or number.

Any way to have the listing show small thumbnails of the actual pix's, rather than just
an IrfanView icon for each ?

Thanks,
Bob
