I just thought I should post - for others who might want to continue to use FastStone - one tip. e#p1097033 for example - from people who like FastStone.
I notice that there are one or two other posts in the forum - in this thread. DigiKam is perhaps the closest rival to FastStone but is evidently designed for the KDE desktop.Īll of which is just background, because (as someone is bound to say!) it is possible to run FastStone in Linux Mint by using Wine. I simply haven't got used to the most common Linux alternatives: Shotwell is pretty good. Picasa too intrusive (and I'm not a great fan of Google apps). GIMP is too elaborate and user-unfriendly (unless you are a real tech fanatic). Zoner is the only other one I have used which runs it close. It is freeware, and the image viewing, editing and organising program that - for me - is head and shoulders above all others. But I set up dual boot, and still have Win7 on my laptop, just because there are one or two programs designed for Windows that I really like and am very accustomed to,and where I haven't yet fully been persuaded of the merits of the Linux alternatives. I shed few tears when I left Windows behind and moved to Linux Mint as my main OS.
