If you want to optimize your large JPG picture you can use the Imagemagick program which is installed by default in Ubuntu 9.10. From Gnome-Terminal go in your folder where you keep your pictures, for example
cd /home/user/Pictures 
and for optimize only one picture write
mogrify -quality 85 Picture.jpg 
For optimizing all the pictures in that folder write
mogrify -quality 85 *.jpg 

85 reprezents the quality of the pictures.

Good luck!

From some time I read the Full Circle Magazine and I like it. The thing is that you have to download a pdf file to read this magazine but this is not an issue from my point of view.

Today I decided to download all the Full Circle Magazine *.pdf files just to have them on my computer, like a collection or something like that. The problem was that there are until now are 34 magazines and downloading one by one it's a little bit time consuming.

Every day at work I use only Total Commander to manage files, to upload/download files on/from our servers, etc., and when I'm coming home and work on Ubuntu Linux I use GNOME Commander.

Let me explain a little bit how to install GNOME Commander on your system and to tell you about some other alternatives if maybe you don't like this application.

Open a terminal and write this line:
sudo apt-get install gnome-commander
After this you have to enter your password and the application will install. It's that simple!

Other two pane files managers that you can install are:
Krusader
sudo apt-get install krusader

BSC:
sudo apt-get install bsc

Tux Commander

Hope that you will like one of this for applications!
