agree.. ACDSee seems to have a nice balance for design elements... it is missing some large features for me however when it comes to using it for photos... I've been trying out Pro X2 for awhile now and love the features... but they missed the boat on a number of things - no stacking/versioning support and the big one... you cannot handle metadata correctly for RAW images. That, coupled with a few other minor quibbles, has turned me back to Imatch for my pro cataloging... but for scrapping, it is a nice package.
