Where do you keep all your inspirations, which you can browse comfortably in 100% size without frames??

    I think Finder + Quick Look already suits your workflow?

    Nevertheless, I do think you can give a try on References.Design. In fact, I just posted another thread about the new features in version 2.0

    Basically, you can link your existing folders with the app and all the images will be scanned and shown in the app. You can double click on an image to view it in 100% scale (unless it is larger than the viewport, in that case the image will be scaled to fit).

    We've built the user interface to be as little as possible, but it is not truly "frameless". There are still some basic controls there. To make it truly frameless, you can right click on an image and choose to Open in New Window, then it will show only the image itself with the system's "traffic lights" for window control. Again it will try to show the image in 100% scale unless it is larger than your screen size.

    It may not fit for your workflow perfectly, but check the other features like aggregated online inspirations, smart content detecting and Inspire Me!, I think it will worth your time to at least have a try!

      Yeah this is what I do. Put stuff in folder -> press spacebar on first image in folder -> up and down arrows navigate the images with minimal UI.
