I would perfer it to just remeber one size for all. I do know the shift as I remeber you told me about it before, but I really like the browse mode.

One of the neat things that I like about the gnome file manager is that it remembers everything about how you open folders. So for instance, if you open a folder and size a specific height/width and scroll half way down the list of files, and then close the window, logout/reboot or whatever and go back to that folder again, it will be in the exact same spot. This is kind of weird behaviour at first if your not used to it, but it makes so much more sense in terms of file browsing. As for the mouse over previews in KDE, ya.. those kick ass :) I wish gnome had them.
