PicLens - New Generation of the Web Photo Viewers


PicLens is a browser plug-in that brings pictures viewing process to the next level of the user’s aesthetic experience. The software was recently updated, covering more Browser types and supported Web Images galleries. In terms of the Browsers list, PicLens works with Internet Explorer, Firefox, Flock, and Safari (where it’s a bit limited), creating an amazing moving wall of the images in the reviewed gallery. You can stop, where you need, and increase the particular picture. You can come closer to the picture wall, you can look on it from a far to get more pics on the screen. You can move the wall backward, zoom in to full-screen version, or start a slideshow. In order to start the application, all you need to do is just click on the new "play" icon appearing on every image, when you pass it thorough with your mouse, while yo are on the application supported Web Sites.

The list of the supported sites is already quite impressive, and it growth fast: Photo Sites (Flickr, Photobucket, Picasa, Smugmug), Social Networking Sites (Facebook, MySpace, Bebo, Hi5, Friendster), Image Galleries (Google Images, Yahoo! Images, Ask Images, Live Images, and AOL Images). You can also search for images from inside the program, not leaving your 3-D magnificent view. The Application is free and ads-free as well. May be, that is just temporary, until the user base grow enough to make the ads use business model more valuable.
