QuickImage Contextual Menu

I have not been able to install QuickImage CM on my Intel iMac. I'm wondering if the CM was broken by the new hardware or if anyone has had any luck installing it? Thanks for any help. I love this little free application.

It looks like that piece of software hasn't been updated in a while... the author lists only Jaguar and Panther as compatible operating systems, showing how dated it is. While most people have had good luck running it on Tiger, most likely it's a PowerPC-only application and won't run on an Intel-based machine.

I thought that maybe Rosetta would be able to help, but that would likely mean you'd have to run the Finder in Rosetta, which may not even be possible, and would decrease the speed of the Finder a tad.

You can't mix PPC plugins with Intel apps. Things like QuickTime components, browser plugins, system preference panes, and, yes, Contextual Menu items, will not work under Rosetta.

Since it is not working on the Intel Mac's, is there something out there that does the same things? I need something to essentially just add the thumbnail icons... Thanks!
