Catalog files
are simple text files, images are not stored in the cat files, thus
one image can be used in 100's of different catalogs, but only one
image is stored on the hard disk, this saves space and allows the
application scale to multiple systems without problems.

5k thumbnails

Any size image
can be captured, not just a few predetermined sizes
-
Auto detection
of screen resolution, allows SharpCatalog to run on any screen size.
-
Very resistant
to technological obsolesce, since SharpCatalog can take advantage
of larger images and larger screen resolutions and faster computers
as they become available. This will allow users with old
P100's to use SharpCatalog, as well as users with the latest PIII800
and large 3000x2000 screens can still use it and fully utilize the
potential of the hardware. As computers become faster and faster,
users will be able to save all the images at much higher resolutions,
and SharpCatalog will support this without modification.
-
Designed to
be networked from inception, the images, databases, and catalog files
can all be stored on a central server and accessed by multiple SharpCatalog
and Gemsoft Systems at the same time (max is 255 concurrent sessions)

Windows clipboard
support.

Support other
image formats such as pcx, bmp, fractal, tiff in catalogs without

Trim function,
this will remove 5% of the perimeter of an image, and then scale the
image to make it appear larger, very useful for getting rid off
the garbage around the edge caused by many capture devices, also
allows you to zoom out, capture at very high resolution, then trim
away the outsize, this gives very good depth of field in the image.
