Cooliris.com


Check out this free download at cooliris.com. Using this program, you can view your images in a 3-D like wall of photos. Cooliris used to be called piclens, and it works well with Facebook, Google, Yahoo, Blogger, and Kodak photo galleries - basically wherever you store your photos online. I have been using it (or playing with it) for almost a year and I really enjoy the way my photos become clearer, sharper and almost a 3-D effect. It works a little differently using the Internet Explorer browser as compared to the Firefox browser, so you would have to download it twice if you want to use it for both browsers like I do. When installed, there should be a "Cool Iris Icon" in the left corner of your picture that you will click on and then your gallery becomes a wall of photos on the screen. You can click on each photo to enlarge it, bring it closer to full screen, or to make it smaller, and there is a full screen button in the left corner of the desktop. To leave the full screen view, just press the "ESC" button on your keyboard. If you do not store any photos online yourself, you can still view your friends photo gallery on facebook, etc. using this tool. link to www.cooliris.com for more info and demos.
