BTW, the way macs handle photos is ASS. Horrible. Iphoto is simply horrible. IE level horrible. Could someone explain why you have to import a photo before you can preview it? If I have 15 similar photos on my iphone, I don't want to import 15 photos, have iphoto create yet another new 'event', then look through them and delete the others. I just want to preview them, and import the %^&^@#$%@# one I want! Image Capture and Preview will not allow this either. A preview application that.....doesn't let you preview? WTF?
The mac OS is great at something things, but it is really clunky compared to windows.
Seriously. Right click, create doc. Does Apple have some bizarre reason for not including context menus?

Totally confused.
Boh Image capture and Preview will allow you to preview pictures at a reasonable size then select the ones you want to import.
Granted they are showing you the thumbnails but even those are plenty big to figure to see even small difference in images. It's actually a smart way to do it and the entire purpose of thumbnails.
Regardless, even if it showed you the full res file you'd still be "importing" them, you need to pull the data across the wire for it to be displayed. A 20 mb image is going to take the same time to show up on screen whether you are importing or previewing it. You can't get away from having to pull the data from the device. Again, it's the purpose of thumbnails, to get you to see the item as quickly as possible.
As for contextual menus there are plenty. You want to right click and create a new file, a file of what? The new file would be a blank document that you then need to open in the appropriate app to add content to then save it
Simply launching the app and creating a new file is the same number of steps, the only difference is steps 1 and 2 are reversed.
