I've been having this exact same problem. At first I used Papers which is a wonderful program that you can pay for (by mekentosj) but I just got a newputer and spent some time looking for a free alternative. However I just found this great image browser for Mac called Pixa . There is tabbed browsing and you can have as many PDF's open in the same window as you want. It's still in beta but it's really convenient to create projects and folders. This way you can also take screenshots of infographics and have them in the same folders as your PDFs when you are working on a multimedia project. You can download it here n It would be great if Foxit made a Mac version though! Edit Pixa is trial version only.
