The field of Digital Management has become quite competitive. There are at least 10 on the market, and CompuPic 6.0 is one of the two or three best of them. Each of the better image browsers (CompuPic, ThumbsPlus, and AddSee) have features that are somewhat different than the others, and all of them continually add new features that make their digital browsers an almost complete photo editing package, including file management, image viewer, and  photo editing. What really sets the newest version of CompuPic apart from the rest of the image browsers is its speed, claiming to be 3 to 8 times faster than the other two thumbnail viewers that I have named. What is meant by faster? In this case, the speed with which to display of the pictures or digital images. When you consider the 2.5 meg plus sizes of digital images these days, it can take forever to load a camera full of them them even so that they can be viewed in thumbnail size. This speed improvement includes and improved handling of larger files, a quicker startup time, an improved database performance (meaning both a more thorough and quicker access to the larger quantities of files), and even an improved ability to copy and move files. There is also quick and easy support for browsing through tons of files. You can see almost every file you wish in CompuPic 6.0, inlcuding pictures, videos, fonts clipart, and text files, supporting over 70 different file formats:

A very nice feature is that you can click on multiple files as below and it will place all the pictures in all the files on the screen at once, enabling you to combine pictures or files of different times that you wish to see all at once:

Just a right click of the mouse on any of the images onscreen and you are able to prepare the picture for whatever you have instore for it:

If you choose to make enhancements to the photo, there is quite an array of enhancements whereby you can quick adjust the pictures brightness and contrast, color, you can crop it, resize it, remove the red-eye and many more enhancement:

You can see almost every file you wish in CompuPic 6.0, including pictures, videos, clipart, and text files, supporting over 70 different file formats including viewing of fonts:

Another very nice enhancement in 6.0 is the ability to view the contents of a zip file without having to unzip it:

So when you add the improved interface, faster resizing of the different files, the ability to turn the sidebars on and off, support for additional CD-R and DVD-R drives for Picture CD creation, and many other improvements to what was a very good program before, you have an excellent upgrade to what was already a very good program.
