Comus Thumbs Or Smart Thumbs
 

Which one is the best ?

comus thumbs
smart thumbs

Comus, hook up Vendzilla to get things going :)

ST by far imho

I've used comus on about 5 sites, I love it. It makes life easy and fun. Its better then a bag full of kittens.

Comus is very customizable but a hell for a non techie to use...

If your a lil technical minded then comus thumbs is the way to go.. Otherwise stay faaar away from it..

definately comus thumbs

Smart thumbs choice number one.

vote for me!! vote for me!! :upsidedow

after having used both I can say smart wins out by a long way.

There should be a third option. AutoGallery SQL
It has by far the best cropper IMHO among other things.


I agree Comus is not for the faint of heart.
It would also be nice if some of the basic things worked.
Sorry, I just got tired of messing with it.

the cropper is good in AGS?

the cropper, the basic and advanced functionality, server load, support, ease of use spot system, sponsor system, all in such a kick ass interface. Oh, and now free version, what more do you need to know? :)

Comus is soo 2004. Smart thumbs all the way.

Yes, but what kind of pie?

No such thing as bad pie. :thumbsup

manual cropping in smart thumbs in a pain in the ass

smart thumbs

I literally load up hosted galleries through their interface and tell it to go and never touch it again

Uh? maybe you are doing it wrong?

want more features?
You can set up comus is no time with more tools and features than anyone, and the support is beyond being just good!
Don't like template system, use the wizard
Updates? One button
Loading galleries? drop them in text format to the bulk importer and run the auto cropper tool, I did 14k galleries that way this last weekend, I started it and turned off my pc while it finished it, 180 x 135 thumbs for a mpg that have a file size of between 7 and 9k, then did a bulk review, complete with text descriptions for using the search function, your surfers will love that!

both have their pros and cons
