About

pwall is modern style photo/video viewer and organizer.

It shows the folders of your photos/videos main directory in the left pane and a photowall in the right. The photowall is a scrolling panel of square thumbnails giving a preview of each photo/video.

Loading and unloading of this scrolling panel is made dynamicaly, viewing page by viewing page like smartphones do.

It also allows you to have basics management of photos/videos (change dates, copy a group of photos to another directory, delete, share, get GPS data...). Clicking on a photo opens it in fullscreen mode. You can continue your navigation in this mode with left and right keys. I use it as an alternative to Shotwell.
