View images in folder

Question

I am building a windows form in C#. Along the bottom of my form, I would like to have a horizontal row of image thumbnails for all the images in the folder. Ideally, the user could double-click an image and it would open up in the default picture viewer. Any and all help is appreciated!

You can muck around with the ListView control that comes with .Net but here is a tutorial on ImageListView control by Ozgur Ozcitak. It works very similar to the standard ListView except it can load the images Asynchronously. You can download his project and look at his code or just use the control straight away.
