What makes Lightbox better than other popular products such as ACDSee, PhotoExplorer, Portfolio, IrfanView, CompuPic, etc.?
Lightbox is a different type of software application compared to standalone image browsers and managers such as ACDSee, PhotoExplorer, IrfanView, Portfolio, etc. It has many new innovative features that distinguish it from today’s image browsers. The first thing that people notice is that Lightbox does not run as a standalone application. It attaches itself next to your application, so its right next to where you are working. Simply find the file and drag it into your application. No need to start or switch to another application on your Desktop. Lightbox also provides more information about files than ever before. It helps you find the right file, the first time.
