This thing makes fcheck go sit in the corner and have a long hard look at itself.  I have used this in production before and have just downloaded it again after a recent update.  If you are someone who needs to look at sequences of images, and if you are in visual fx or animation I can guarantee you do, download it and give it a shot.  Guaranteed you will start to use it more and more!
