Description Achim Bohnet 2005-02-15 01:31:08 UTC 
Version:           0.7 (using KDE 3.3.2,  (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-6)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.10-1-686

The space between thumbnails is quite small.  ~ 1 mm on my 125 dpi
monitor.   To select several images with the mouse one has
to place the mouse cursur in this 1 mm band.  One really has
to be concentrated.   1.5 or 2 mm would be much better.

I would like to suggest to increase the distance _and_ to
specify it in pts
(so it's spacing for a 133 dpi, like dell latitide laptops,
and a 75 dpi monitor found in many cheap laptops is the same).

Thx for consideration,
Achim

default thumbnail spacing has been doubled to 10.
