Gravity's Impressive Array of Features
The usual fare of newsreader features are handled with ease by Gravity -- internal database and offline/online options, send and receive mail capabilities, multiple signature files, right mouse button functionality, a Bozo Bin (i.e. kill files), extensive on-line help (there's even a helpful hints and tips section for getting the most of Gravity), and an intuitive status bar for monitoring download progress are all examples of features that comprise the minimum feature-set necessary to make a newsreader competitive in its field.
Gravity goes beyond the standard features by once again catering to the end user in extensive fashion. Automatic decoding of binary files is handled in relatively standard fashion, but Gravity takes the feature to the next level by adding an ultra helpful Image Gallery feature that allows you to organize, view, and/or delete downloaded images and movies.
Images can be presented in a variety of ways including being viewed as thumbnail images or as part of a slideshow. Another option is for Gravity to automatically load your default graphics viewer (i.e., ACDSee, LView Pro, or similar app) for looking at downloaded pictures.
