Review: GREAT PROGRAM - I bought a used iMac from the Goodwill and wanted to use it for my embroidery designs and digitizing. It was not until I completed my hard drive and memory upgrades that I realized my design software (Floriani Total Control Universe) is not Mac compatible. So...I did a little research and decided to purchase Thumbnailer which is wonderful and allows me to see my designs while brousing design files. That was such a game changer that I went all in and also purchased Embrilliance. Both are great products for a fraction of the cost - wish I had bought this software first. I am not a serious digitizer, but the programs work well for all my needs. With Thumbnailer I can quickly find the designs I am looking for without a lot of unnecessary file name changes and sub folder creation. I sort my designs by vendor and I use the iMac file tag feature to attach a category to the file name. I now have a visually searchable design database that really helps me get to the fun part and start stitching.
Review: Perfect Solution to a Big Problem - I would give this software 6 stars if I could. Problem: So many embroidery designs. Brother's PE Design software is super slow to preview. You can create thumbnails with it but then you have to be searching for the design, updating every time you add a design and is a pain to use in general. Solution: Thumbnailer installs and treats embroidery files the same way Windows deals with photos and videos. It automatically creates previews using the same functionality found in the OS. Basically it installs a small software that lets Windows KNOW how to preview embroidery files. It runs from Explorer. Works like previewing photos. Just open the directory where your designs reside and you get a preview. One of the most elegant software solutions I have seen in a while. Note: This software worked with Windows 10, no problems. Support: I had some small issues using the software in Windows standard account (not an admin account). I put in a ticket on a Sunday and on Sunday I got a reply. I got some instructions on an email to resolve (all you need is to do is a) convert standard user to admin b) install software c) revert user to standard user) and I was set. Wife is happy so I'm happy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this the software I need to open desings on my computers**
A: No. It's a software to view your designs as a thumbnail when opening a folder on your PC. So instead of just seeing the name of the file you see the actual design as an icon in your folder. It's bern a lifesaver for me because you don't have to open the design to see what it is.

**Q: I have macos big sur and have it on icons..  i went to help on embrillance and downloaded a file that i was told would fix it.  nope?**
A: Turn in a ticket to Embrilliance techs.  Also, have you granted full disk access?  Have you chosen the file extensions that you want to see?  I had problems at first with Mac's updates, but tech walked me through what I needed to do.  Good luck.  You should be up and going soon.

**Q: how many designs can be stored on this softwear or can be used.  I have a very, very very ,large collection of deisgns**
A: Since designs are not stored on the software, so there is no limitations that I can see.  This software allows me to see my thousands of embroidery designs in small to large icons.  It works very, very well for me at a very reasonable price.

**Q: Can I use this on a Bernina 790 plus**
A: Yes, it has the exp formatting that Bernina uses

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Once it is installed, much better view of embroidery designs.
*by L***G on July 11, 2020*

A little tricky but not too to install. After installation works as desired. The patterns show up in the Explorer right away. The colors are a little odd but that may be my computer. There is not a lot of detail but that doesn't bother me I know what it should look like. Very happy. Since this little program worked so well I bought the Essentials program and am working through that to see what it does. Seems to be good and documentation is, so far, very good.
