love this

hate this

trying my damneddest to restore non 3d folders.
This is the only thing I want, all folders preview right and have folder.jpgs in them
Just want to look at my album Covers like albumcovers FLAT - LIKE XP

I can do everything with this EXCEPT THAT. I for the life of me can't find how to do it

How the hell do i get FOLDER VIEW like XP, Globally, where it previews like XP does?

Please.. god.. this is all i want.. the only thing. These 3d spilly folders where you only see part of the picture, distorted and edge on spilling out of the folder is driving me insane make it go away please HELP

Attachments - Music Collection - The folder viewed in Windows XP
This is weak - the same folder under Windows 7

All I want is NON 3d folders with a 2d preview - just like XP did - Im an artist and have hundreds of directories of artwork/ photos/ and graphic design projects.

I super need this function restored. but also need a machine that sees over 4 GB of Ram - What the hell am I to do?

I need the Folder.jpg/ Live previewing. LIKE XP DID IT. Just that. Please gods of programming tell me how!

Please see attachments

And thank you I cannot get this on my own. How the hell do i set it that way?

Microsoft does not allow this for Explorer in Windows 7/8/Vista. Your best option would be to use another file manager if it has such a thumbnail view for folders.
