If you’re using Windows XP, viewing pictures as thumbnails in Windows Explorer can be a drag, since they’re kinda small.
Here’s a relatively simple way of increasing them.
Download MIcrosoft’s own free utility called Tweak UI. Here’s the link: http://is.gd/a1Qc
Once it’s installed, launch it, expand the Explorer branch and click on Thumbnails.
In the Thumbnail box, enter a figure between 96 and 256 (the bigger the number, the bigger the size of the thumbnail.)
(You can also alter the quality of the thumbnail image via the slider above it.)
Click on Apply.
Test out your new setting by opening My Pictures or another folder with images in it. You may have to close the folder if it’s already open and then re-open it to see the settings. (The images can include PDFS, or Adobe Acrobat files, by the way.)
Tweak the settings until you’re happy.
