I have started with a simple Swing application. In this I select a
picture file JFileChooser. It works, but because there are more as
1.000 photos it is a little bothersome to select the correct photo.
With Gwenview I can see minatures of the photos. Would it be possible
to select a photo in Gwenview and drop it on my application? That
would make live much easier.

Of-course I would prefer a system independent way, so if someone would
use my application on Windows it works also.
