TOKYO (MacHouse) – If you have already tried out Microsoft‘s Windows 8 Consumer Preview or 90-day evaluation version of Windows 8, you will probably agree that it’s not the best thing to use when you have a bunch of photos. It can be quite annoying when all you want to do is just open a couple of photo files. But you will be forced to toggle between Desktop and Photos, wasting your valuable time.

HiGallery is a desktop Windows desktop application that lets you manage and organize photo files. Using HiGallery, you can create a web browser-based photo gallery. You can import as many as 512 pictures to a project. All it takes to browse photos is a web browser. It’s cross-platform. So you can use your web photo gallery on your Mac and Lixux computers, too. Or you can even post your photo gallery on a remote server so that anyone can check out your photos.

TOKYO (MacHouse) – Yesterday, we had to code-sign some 200 Windows files. We could still be code-signing files right now without a small application we’ve developed just for this purpose.

cSignHelper is a smaller desktop application that helps you when you code-sign Windows files. If you have dozens of files to code-sign, you really don’t want to manually append one text value after another to create a code-signing script. Using cSignHelper, just drag and drop a file (to code-sign) onto the top path field. Then click on the Generate button. Clicking on the Copy button, you now have a script on the clipboard. So open Command Prompt and paste it there. Finally, press Return.
