Image Viewer Screen Details
Our Image Viewer lets you attach an unlimited amount of images to each item so that you can have multiple views of the item from every angle. You can add images to each item in your collections in several formats including .bmp, .jpg, etc. and print out the image. We use a "true image" process so that your images are displayed exactly as they are in your computer and not all stretched and skewed out of shape so that they fit into our image viewer like some other low cost programs on the market. But remember Bigger is Better! You have the ability to attach a close up images of an item so that all the important details can be seen.

Additionally, since images are so important to a collector we have integrated Microsoft Paint into the program so you can edit an image right from KollectAll instead of having to open, close and swap between programs just to edit an image (see the screen shot at the end of this page). You will also notice that there is an "Launch External Image Viewer" option, this will launch an external image viewer that you have configured on your computer, see below:

"Under Windows, the user can associate a type of file (jpg files, for example) with an application to open them. Jpg files, for example, can be opened with Microsoft Paint, Adobe PhotoShop, Internet Explorer, Netscape, and many other programs. If for example, the user has set Adobe PhotoShop as the program to run when clicking on a jpg file, and the user has set Microsoft Paint as the program to run when clicking on a bit map file, then, when the current image on display in KollectAll is a jpg file, using "Launch External Image Viewer" will open the file with Adobe PhotoShop. When the image on display is a bit map file, "Launch External Image Viewer" will open the file with Microsoft Paint. When there is no program associated with a file type, or if the program associated with it is not on the PC, nothing happens"

To configure this, Microsoft offers the following instructions:
