Mostly bug fixes, but a couple requested items added as well (ability to sort pics, and delete!), but for all interested, here is the post:

S2V is a stylus-free picture viewing application. It can also be used to set up the wallpapers for S2U2 (0.97 or later); assign a pic to a contact; set it as Today's wallpaper; or send it via MMS/email.

Prerequisition:
- WM5 Phone or WM6 Professional devices
- free RAM: at least 6M for QVGA
- if you cannot start S2V, delete the whole registry tree HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2V, then start S2V again.

Changes of v0.42
- fixed the occasional bug that S2V quit unexpectedly when viewing a particular folder.
- added the options to change the sorting menu symbol. It's only usefull for those devices that cannot display the triangles on the sorting menu. How? Create a registry value AscenndingSymbol (String) at \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2V\, set the content to whatever you want, e.g. ^, or even a word (ascending). Create another one called DescendingSymbol for the descending order.
- fixed some minor bugs.

Changes of v0.40 (20-8-200

- added sort option by time or name.
- added thumbnail pic cache (the cache folder can be custom by the registry value "CacheFolder" at \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2V\).
- added send function to send a pic via MMS/email.
- added sliding effect when zooming a pic.
- added support to RealVGA.
- reduced the chances of blank screen when a device has enough memory.
- separate CAB files for QVGA(low-res) & VGA(high-res) devices.
- changed some menu labels; for non-English translation, pls refer to the lang.ini file.
- fixed some minor bugs.

Changes of v0.38 (23-5-200
- added a delete function.
- added option to open a pic through the command switch (for advanced users, you can now associate pic files to be opened by S2V).
- added some shortcuts: ANSWER key to quit; END/OK key to minimize; tap the top right corner to minimize.
- reduced the RAM usage a little.
- reduced the contact pic size so as to reduce the chance of Outlook sync error (but for VGA or above devices, there is still chances that the pic will over the size that Outlook can handle).
- all system icons are live when S2U2 (v1.00 or later) is already running in the background.
- fixed the issue that some devices cannot run in Landscape mode.
- fixed some minor bugs.

Screenshots:

Thumbnail view & folder view (press the folder name to view that folder's pic; press the ARROW to view that folder's sub-folders)

Operations:
- Slide the screen to view the previous or next picture (or press the DPAD left/right);
- Slide on the left-side screen from top to bottom to rotate 90 degrees anti-clockwise; slide from bottom to top to rotate 90 degrees clockwise; when sliding on the right-side screen, the rotation will be opposite.
- Press DPAD Up to Zoom-in or Down to Zoom-out; double-tap the screen or push the DPAD-ACTION to return to the normal view.
- Slightly press the screen to call up the lower menu.
- Press the Back button at the Thumbnail screen to browse folders.
- When browsing folders, if there is an Arrow button next to a folder, it means that folder has subfolders. Press this Arrow button to view the subfolders.
- Shortcuts: ANSWER key to quit; END/OK key to minimize; tap the top right corner to minimize.

For details, as usual, please read the Readme file or the next post.
Besides, please read the README FIRST, especially the Known limitations & FAQs before posting your questions here.

No prob!! I already installed and tested, and it works great! You can now sort by name and time (still testing that one), and delete pics from S2V (a biggie on the request list!!! No crashes, or bugs found so far!!!

EDIT: I just tested the sorting function, and it works, so if that is useful to people, there is confirmation it works!!

I agree with the no bugs, etc. It seems snappier than the previous releases too...or maybe that's my imagination.

I have noticed it being snappier as well, I don't think it is your imagination!!!

(I am just hoping A_C gets his hands on an 800w for testing to get his trilogy of fantastic apps compatible before I get my hands on one!!!)
