Tripredacus Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 On the top, click the arrow next to "Views" and choose large or extra large icons, whichever best suits you and your resolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njven Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Chnage them from icons to thumbnail views. It will turn them into squares about 4 times the size of a normal icon. Its under the change view thing along with details, list, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, after changing to Large or Extra Large Icons, there is a period of time before the icon changes from the default picture icon to a preview of the image.

spacesurfer Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 It takes a period of time because it is generating thumbnails for all of your pics. The more the pictures, the longer it will take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
