long time windows user on my first mac now with a pretty easy question..
what is the best way to (quickly) look through a large quantity of images deleting those you dont want?
the "coverflow" view in finder would probably work well but the delete and backspace buttons on my keyboard dont delete the files, I have to use like option-backspace which is kinda trivial but unnecessarily complicated....and after I go through a few it loses its place. Like i delete one, then it auto-selects another, i delete it, it auto-selects the next but then after I do a few it doesnt auto select the next file so I need to manually highlight the next file.
in windows I would just double-click on a file and it would open all files in that folder in "preview" where I could press delete to delete them but in osx, the preview app seems to only open highlighted images and even then if i highlighted them all it deleted them from the slideshow, not from the source folder when I press the delete key.
your thoughts?
