SPEED!!!

Suggestion for Nokia Photo Browser

Amazing job on this project! no doubt!

A little speed wouldn't hurt right? There is this effect whenever you scan through pictures individually when you are about to view the next picture, there is a "fade" effect which causes you to see a portion of the previous and next photo. Its kinda annoying. i don't know if it is because the photo browser is sluggish or some other cause.

It might be good if the main priority for development right now would be:
* Functions like an EXIT BUTTON, and SEND
* more ZOOM please
* Faster Loading of images
* Quality of pictures? (the default browser seems to have more clarity than this one)
* faster response time with the interface. (SPEED)
* folders

I just don't understand why Symbians have that tendency to be sluggish. They have really great apps but a major problem with the speed.

In my opinion id rather have a fast simple browser that can share photos via bluetooth at least, than have all the features like slideshow, edit, zoom 10000x but yet wait for 2 secs for every picture to load... =( all in all, i love this app! BETALABS ROCK!

Thanks. We'll sure continue squeezing the CPU we have=)

Do you often share your pictures over the Bluetooth?

sharing pics via bluetooth (especially since nokia 5800 has AMAZINGLY FAST bluetooth send speeds) is something i do almost everyday. i show my friends at college a lot of the pics i have, and they want it on their n95's and n82's and so on, and the fact that i have to exit NPB and go to gallery and send the photo often raises a few questions from my mates, asking me 'isn't there a send option in that application' to which, i sadly have to respond in the negative. This is one very very crucial feature that any awesome feeling photo browser app like NPB should Definitely have!! :D

Thanks. It's interesting to learn that's what you and your friends do. Since it is a popular request, we'll definitely spend some time discussing what we should do.

I'm not going to complain too much about the speed, because even with my camera backed off to 3MP the images are 600kB or more. For my N95-3 to manipulate so many so quickly is impressive to me.
