Yesterday, I discovered a free manager images that at first view looks like Picasa with a design more modern : it is Pictomio.

Pictomio is an application, which uses the performance of your graphics card, for managing, categorizing, searching and archiving photos, videos and other media files in just a few clicks. The software allows you to generate animated 2D and 3D slideshows.



Pictomio is composed of three different parts : photo browser and slideshow editor, a slideshow viewer, and a slideshow screensaver, and it has many features such as :

- an image and video management
- a library in order to catalog your photos and videos by themes, by the date taken and EXIF values, in alphabetical order, etc.



- an image browsing that offers thumbnail browsing, film-strip browsing, single image browsing and the iTunes-style carousel browsing



- possibility to create slideshows with your pictures and video and make 3D effects



-etc. (for more, click here)

Here a small video to present you Pictomio :



Currently, Pictomio is available for Windows XP and Windows Vista and it supports many languages. It is better to have a good graphics card (with ShaderModel 2.0 and a minimum of 128 MB video RAM). Pictomio is in beta version, it is possible to have some bugs.

If you want to download Pictomio, it is here, and do not hesitate to give us your comments on the application !
