Photonic
sadly, i don’t use flickr all that often. however, i have recently acquired a pro account, so it has occurred to me to use it more actively.
so, i am trying out this new app called photonic. it’s been showing up in my mac-related RSS feeds for about a week. ergo, i gave it a little looksie. the demo is supposed to last until march 20 (UPDATE: i bought it. because it rocks (especially for uploads).
i like the interface, very leopard (sidebar with the finder/itunes drop down menus). it allows for browsing of my sets and photostream, as well as the browsing of all streams. there is also in that same sidebar an allowance for the viewing of my favorites, contacts and groups, which is totally awesome. as some sort of bonus, it also includes a section on photos uploaded in the past couple of days. i’m tired of typing the word “also.”
the uploading portion allows for a group of photos to be recognized by the program, and you can upload them all, or the selected photos (arguably those which you have finished tagging, description-ing, title-ing, assigning to a set/group pool, and establishing prefs with regards to visibility, type and safety).
one of the best features that i’m noticing is an instant ability to favorite-star a photo ( a cute little button in the bottom-left corner.
so. yeah i like it. hopefully this will make me use my flickr account that much more.
