Nice! - Ⓒⓗⓡⓘⓢ Ⓟⓘⓡⓘⓛⓛⓞ

been waiting for this for a long time. Now you can seamlessly browse Cooliris in a browser tab enabling you to cmd-click / ctl-click images and have them load in background tabs to fave/comment/etc later. This new release is really great news. - Thomas Hawk

About time! - Simon Wicks

LOL, they don't have a version that works with 3.5 currently that I can find. So you have to wait a little longer on that. I love the app though, and was so excited to see this. - Jimminy, CoG of FF

Humm. Seems that its only works in browser view, if you hit the fullscreen view and do the command click it closes out and goes back to normal. Still opens the tab behind though. So, almost there for me :) - Simon Wicks

and i just realised you said browse in a browser tab... Silly me :( - Simon Wicks

I am using it in 3.5. - Kreg Steppe

BTW, Thomas...have you used the Slideshow on Flickr to browse contacts? I would do that and fav from it. - Kreg Steppe

I have Kreg, this is far better than Slideshow. The ability to increase both size and speed with the mouse is massive. I've seen nothing on the web more visually enticing for photos than Cooliris. - Thomas Hawk

Kreg, I'll have to see if I can get it to update then. - Jimminy, CoG of FF

I agree Thomas. I have used Coloris in the past. I love it...and it is more useful now. - Kreg Steppe from email

Thanks for the info. I had it once but didn't find it useful, the new version looks much more useful. About the hyperlink: if it takes you to a page that tries to get you to use cooliris than it best be used in moderation. When photoplow started up and encouraged chatters to post comments to photos with the line "seen in a discussion on photoplow" there were spam complaints in the help forum. Yes, the photo owner might want to know what was being said about the photo but it was really just a way of using the photo comment page for slick advertising - go and use this service. I wouldn't want to see photo comment pages used too much for that kind of thing. Otherwise, I'll try it if it works with ubuntu - Theresa

Yeah, I hear you Theresa, but browsing a pool/set/etc using it is just so damn beautiful and now that they've got the cmd/click piece down it makes it fully operable as a way to both browse photos and interact. It might be hard for me to resist posting links to great sets/pools/etc. with it. Here's another GREAT view, the DMU saved photos pool: http://www.cooliris.com/tab... - Thomas Hawk

I tried it once before and found its operation kind of clunky, even though it is very visually appealing. I'll have to give the new version another try. - John (bird whisperer)

John the new version feels smooth as a silk. - Thomas Hawk

Now if I could just get it to default back to fullscreen instead of a tab, I'd be real happy. Been using Cooliris for a long time. Changed the way I browse the web. - mike fabio

Thx for this, cooliris is a wonderful tool! - timepilot

i used cooliris back in the day, but i think ill need to install this again... - Cass

Thanks for posting, Thomas! Good to have you back on Cooliris - we hope we can keep rolling out releases that you and everyone else will love :) And for those of you who may have been experience FF3.5 compatibility problems with Cooliris, please go back to our site and download Cooliris again. That should take care of any problems. - Cooliris

For pages that have 2 Media RSS feeds, Cooliris 1.9 would find the one with id="gallery". That feature was handy because you could have one blog-style feed with media and another slideshow-optimized feed. The feature is missing in 1.10 and 1.11. Will it return in a future release? - Bruce Lewis from fftogo

I must be missing something... how do i integrate flickr into cooliris? as in, how do i view a photostream or set? - thekillingjoke

Bruce, not sure at the moment, but we'll be keeping that in mind. I'll submit it as a feature request! - Cooliris

nevermind... i see how to do it now. - thekillingjoke

I absolutely LOVE Cool Iris -- secret: make your PowerPoint slides image files and zip thru your preso with Cool Iris and watch your audience's jaws drop on the conf. rm table :) - Susan Beebe

Impressive. Great way to view photos on Facebook too. - Mike Doeff

They still haven't implemented the one or two features which I consider most important. 1. The ability to Fav (on Flickr) a photo without leaving the Cooliris interface. 2. The ability to comment on a photo (on Flickr) without having to leave the Cooliris interface. Having to bounce in and out of Cooliris, even if just between browser tabs is very disruptive. - TranceMist

TranceMist, hear you loud and clear - will also add to feature request. We love your feedback/ideas about Cooliris so keep it coming! :) - Cooliris

Is there a way to make Cooliris open a picture in a new tab just by control clicking the main picture? The only way I can get the new tab feature to work is to control click on the tiny arrow at lower right... - Sam Posten

Sam - yes, clicking the arrow icon is still the way to launch Cooliris. We'll look into the ctrl click you suggested! - Cooliris
