CNET Editors' review
As floppy disks are sinking into oblivion, WinImage is getting more and more versatile. In addition to creating floppy disk images, it now can replicate CD-ROMs and hard drives. It reads disc images in several formats, and its handy interface makes functions readily accessible. It's easy to create an image file and add and extract files. With the included FileDisk freeware driver, you even can mount disc images as virtual drives. Though its support for CD-ROM and hard-drive imaging doesn't trump the competition's, WinImage is a very credible tool for users with legacy systems.Publisher's Description
From Gilles Vollant:
WinImage is a disk-imaging suite for easy creation, reading, and editing of many image formats and file sytems, including DMF, VHD, FAT, ISO, NTFS and Linux. The disk image is an exact copy of a physical disk (floppy, CD-ROM, hard disk, USB, VHD disk, etc.) or a partition that preserves the original structure. With WinImage in place, you can recreate the disk image on the hard drive or other media, view its content, extract image-based files, add new files and directories, change the format, and defragment the image. All this and more is delivered in one intuitive user interface that enables imaging right out of the box. The program has many utilitarian uses at home and in the office. As a serious PC user, you probably have tons of old but still useful floppy disks. As a hard-disk backup solution, WinImage allows you to save hours and even days restoring a system and configurations on a machine that has experienced a hard-disk crash.
Version 8.0.8 adds VHD support.

"A++ Software...."
Version: WinImage 8.0.8
Pros
I love the ability to nicely store my old floppy diskettes to a Single file that I can mount and unmount.
This is a must have for backup utilities.
I will be definetly registering this tool!
Cons
Make sure you reboot after installation as the mounting and unmounting had a issue on one of my XP machines where it would not let me mount anything. On my other 4 machines it was fine. Once it was rebooted though it was all set. In all honesty it could be my machine.
Being a developer myself I would suggest the saving of the Layout (HTML/TXT) to have menu options like Save HTML file, and Save Text file as it would be easier for the user to choose it on the menu then having to click more then once like it is currently. The software is top notch.

"Great for creating floppies"
Version: WinImage 8.0.8
Pros
It works beyond the trial period without purchasing it.
Creates floppies from floppy images with ease.
Lets you view and extract from pretty much any image type under the sun.
Has a decent, easy interface.
Cons
Its not free.
No installer.
Doesn't let you modify images. It only lets you view and extract from images.
Extraction progress meter is horrible.
