This seems to hold true for me for sure.

I guess I'd love some input from other users - maybe I'm odd - but for me my **screenshots themselves** tend to be very wide aspect ratio, and the issue is that they get scaled way down in the vertically tall/narrow preview window you get when trying to view all your columns in the list as well.  Maybe an example with my window sized more like your default there will make my point:\r\n\r\n![image](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/98626/18878983/55806dda-8498-11e6-992c-f2e03d492082.png)\r\n\r\nYou can see in that capture that when you have widescreen screenshot in a narrow preview window, it has to scale it way down to the point that it is difficult to see what the screenshot even is.\r\n\r\nHere is another example, showing how narrow (and thus less useful) I have to make the file list to see the preview window at or near 100% zoom:\r\n\r\n![image](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/98626/18879142/d9b45c56-8498-11e6-8297-075222189064.png)\r\n\r\nI guess it might be better still to have the option of either, rather than just changing the default, but I figured that might be more difficult programming.  I do admit though that if someone tends to take more square or vertically tall screen captures (which seems odd to me, but I'll admit it is possible) they might like the default layout more. "}}
