I don't like having two different thumbnail viewing packages;
and the fact that they are not particularly coherent makes
it even worse, by increasing the amount that users have to learn
and remember in order to use them both.

What I want to see is one thumbnail viewing package
that is easy to learn to use in a simple fashion,
and is also powerful.
