I have an M3 Simply, 2GB Sandisk MicroSD and a few hundred images ranging from landscapes to cars, to family photos etc.

My problem is, I can never get all the images to display on my DS. It's worth mentioning that ALL images are in JPEG format and they vary greatly in dimension.

Moonshell can open 90% of my images, no matter how large in dimension they are but it can become incredibly slow when moving the image with the pen. The image opens up 100% full size and with small preview of the whole image, I have to scroll with the pen to see what image is being displayed.

DSOrganise can only open around 40% of my images but I perfer this as I get a neat little preview on the touch screen and the image is displayed in large on the top screen. My DS doesnt slow down at all when moving the image with the pen.

My questions are....

1) Why can't Moonshell open a few of my images?

2) Why does DSOrganise have trouble reading most of my images?

3) Why is Moonshell incredibly slow when viewing most images? (the loading bar keeps coming up everytime I move the image)

4) What's the name of the DS application where you can view images on both screens by turning the DS on its side? Is this any good? (I understand you have to convert the images first for the application to read them)

I had the same problems, too. I went ahead and downloaded ImageViewer to look at my photos. It works really well and you can also do a slide show with music in the background as well.

Do you have a link to ImageViewer? and how does it compare to something like Comic Book DS? (which I havent tried yet)

Moonshell can not display pics that were saved as 'progressive JPG' I noticed.

Where can I find this 'Imageviewer' ??
Btw ; DSPhoto is also good for viewing pics - make sure to save EXIF info with your pics, you get more info that way.
