I'm a new iMac user - so my question is...is there a way to view files (jpeg) under iPhoto as thumbnails instead of file names? I know I can use the preview pane but you only see one photo at a time. I'm frequently using powerpoint and inserting photos - it would be much easier to view them all at once rather than viewing one and arrowing down through the group.

Thanks for any suggestions.

when in icon view, right click inside the window and choose "show view options". click the box marked "show icon preview". remember to choose whether you want it to be for this window only or for all windows.

straight from the Mac-Forums Switchers FAQ and Information in the switcher hangout forum.

welcome to the forums and good luck with your new imac!
