Software for Counter Collection Digital

So, what do the fans of Counter Collection Digital use to view the images?

Right now, I just transferred all the pics to my hard drive, and wrote basic html pages to view them by type (humanoids, aberrations, undead, etc.). It's an inefficient way to view them, but it works. I can write a custom web page for an adventure pretty quickly and print out just the ones I need, at the size I need.

But I'm wondering about even better, faster ways to do it. My image manipulation software is just Ulead PhotoImpact (which came with a scanner I bought years ago). The html pages seemed more flexible than PhotoImpact, but there must be better ways to manipulate and print the images than writing an hmtl page every time I want to print out 20 different counters.

I use Powerpoint. Use squares (or rounded squares) of proper size, and set the fill in the squares to be the appropriate image. If you want numbers as well, just "Add text" them to the squares.

If you need to create templates, I found this thread very useful.
