PicLens - immersive web gallery slideshows


PicLens is a free browser extension for Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari that interacts with a number of the most popular image sharing sites to provide a seamless, full-screen "slideshow" experience for viewing images on the web. Photos will come to life via a cinematic presentation that goes well beyond the confines of the traditional browser window. With PicLens, browsing and viewing images on the web will never be the same again.

Sites supported includes:
Flickr, Facebook, Google Images, Photobucket, Myspace, Yahoo Images,
Picasa web albums, Bebo, Ask
Images, Fotki, Friendster, Live Images,
Foto time, Hi5, AOL Images, DeviantArt, Smugmug, Adobe lightroom



The interactive "3D Wall" lets you effortlessly drag, click, and zoom your way around a wall of pictures for an extraordinary, full-screen viewing experience. Why mundanely flip through online photo galleries or squint at thumbnails from Google Image Search when you can fly through an immersive, full-screen experience instead?
