Highbrow was designed to be the purest, simplest image browser possible--without window borders or buttons, without any interference in the visual feast of your photography. With Highbrow, you can look at photos as simply as looking at snapshots on your desktop. And now, in Highbrow 1.5, you can view movies alongside images in the same simple interface
Too many photo apps are primarily photo editors, or photo organizers, and forget about the simple pleasure involved in looking through a collection of photos; they layer on so many palettes, that the space available for the photo is dramatically reduced. Highbrow, on the other hand, was specifically designed to focus on immersive photo viewing. Highbrow windows are proportional to the image they display, so there is no clipping. All you're looking at are your photos. Even the menu bar can be hidden if you want. It's still there when you need it, and click in the menu bar area, but otherwise it also gets out of the way. Load one window or many, with a visible browser or with only a single image displayed.
Highbrow includes the ability to save and load multiple states - collections of open windows - so you can set up and revisit immersive image sets whenever you like.
Highbrow also offers basic file management features, including the ability to copy and move files, rename files and and folders, and move files to the trash, so you can manage your collection without exiting to the Finder repeatedly.
As much as possible, Highbrow gets out of the way and displays your photos--and now also your Mac-native movies--the way they were meant to be seen.
