Hi! Very Happy

Did someone of you find a way to show thumbnail previews of .psd files in windows explorer?
I found a solution for cs2 here, but I have cs3.3 (cs4 coming up). If so... how did you fix this?

thank you for all the trouble you have to go through in order to help me out (if you can) in finding a way to enable the .psd thumbnail previews (why it is called a thumbnail I don't know, but my thumbnail is bigger than the thumbnail in explorer) in windows explorer.

We had a thread 3 or four months back-
I mentioned a prog, and others mentioned other small progs that work well.
I forget the name of mine off the top of my head but a quick search site for psd thumbnail will get it for ya.

thanks gsenthil!

I decided to try out the solution found here.
On the buttom was an url for cs3 users, but the only difference is the little regedit settings for illustrator. Since I had no problems, I only followed the steps for cs2. I have cs3 and it worked out fine. finally thumnails for my psd files! Very Happy
oh.. I didnt have a folder called "shell" in the pointed out directory, so i just created it. worked fine!

Hope this helps for any of you with the same problem. Smile
