I don't want to get into an argument about the relative merits of built in Mac features I just need something that works the way I want it to.
Coming from the Windows environment (it is where I make my living) I have found the Mac environment to be significantly different and pose a considerable learning curve especially when it comes to file management. I like to be able to view and manage files from within the same application but have yet to find something that will allow me the freedom I am used to. Ideally I am looking for something like ACDSee 32 (the last good version) which acts like a typical file manager but has a full sized preview pane as well. This allows you to preview a picture then drag and drop it into a folder of your choosing. The software also allows you to do some minor edits and create folders as well.
Preview on my MacBook does not do this, iPhoto wants to take all of my photos and store them in a proprietary environment (not happening) and Xie is a very nice file viewer but does nothing else. Any useful suggestions of a software that will do what I would like it to do would be appreciated.

Sorry if I posted in the wrong section but the program I am looking for is photo specific so I thought I was posting in the right area: my bad. Mea culpa.

iView Media, the last good version before MS bought it in 2006

If you have a recent version of the OS, you can set any Finder window to CoverFlow - that gives you a full-sized preview pane in the Finder. Ever tried that?
Other than that, I think the venerable GraphicConverter has a similar feature, but that may be overkill.

The low-end Mac Pro is the most overpriced Mac since the IIvx

The problem with CoverFlow is that you cannot view and move files at the same time. In ACDSee you can view files and relocate them to other folders while you are viewing. Will look at GraphicConverter.
