OK, this is a very simple hint, but I've been using Tiger for nearly a week now and only found this by accident. It completely blew me away, so I thought I'd share it for the other 'mere mortals' out there.
If you select a range of graphic files in the Finder, you can control-click on the selection and choose "Slideshow" from the popup menu. This brings up an iPhoto-like slide show of the images. This is amazingly useful to me as a product designer, I have hundreds of images that I need to routinely review, and this makes it very easy to go through them.
But wait, there's more! If you click on the "Index sheet" icon in the controller at the bottom of the screen, you get an Exposé-like effect wherein all of the images are shown at once. This is gold to me, as I review lots of documents and need to pick just one from a range. Windows XP has had an image view for folders, and I was lusting even after that, but this is much better. This appears to work only for graphics files, including Photoshop, but it doesn't work for PDF files (single or multi page).
