Okay, suppose I have a folder with thousands of graphics in. What is
the best program that would allow me to quickly/easily scroll through
them and delete selected ones as I go ?

The most "basic" thing would be NOT to have a..

"Are you sure you want to delete this ?"

"Are you really sure you want to delete this ?"

"Are you really really sure you want to delete this ?"

"Are you really really really sure you want to delete this ?"

popup when pressing the delete key.

Being able to have the above AND to press the delete key
and * automatically * have the next graphic appear would
be the ideal.

Clicking the "next" button gets rather tedious after a few hundred
times. :-(

Does such a program exist please ?

Regards, John.

What i do in this instance is create a new folder,and drag the files
you don't want to it,
then use eraser or delete to get ride of them.
Eraser,an ecellant program can be found here...

Irfanview would be my choice. Go to full screen and then just use the
arrow keys to move back and forth and the delete key to get rid of the
ones you don't want. You will have to go into the Properties and set
it not to show the Delete confirmation dialog windows.

I use Irfanview. Set up a Temporary directory (ie. 'Delete'). Load the
picture. When you get to one you don't want press F7 (Move file). Set
the first destination directory to 'Delete'. After that, each time you
get to a picture you want to delete just press F7,1. Use the
left/right cursor keys to go through the pics. Once you've gone
through all the pictures just delete the directory. The advantage to
doing this is you can sort the other pictures to nine other
directories while going through them
