Flickr has announced that visitors who browse the site using an iPad can now view photos using a lightbox-style viewer. On any photo page, simply tap the picture you'd like to view and the background will darken and the higher-resolution image will load in the foreground.
It's a subtle change, but one which definitely makes browsing Flickr on an iPad a more enjoyable (and efficient) ...

Recently, some users of Google's Picasa Web service noticed something odd. Like Gmail, Picasa Web tells you how much of your total available storage you're using. Something appeared to be wrong, however -- users were reporting having more free space than they previously had. It's common for Google to silently bump our upper storage limits, but how were these users showing the same number of photos ...
At Mobile World Congress, RIM continues to showcase the upcoming BlackBerry PlayBook tablet. Today, it's shared video footage of a very slick photo editing tool called Scrapbook. The app was developed by The Astonishing Tribe, a Swedish development house RIM acquired back in December 2010.

I'm a big fan of Gmail's HTML5-powered drag-and-drop attachment feature, and I've been waiting to see it pop up in other Web apps. Thanks to Ryan Wagner over at CyberNet, I discovered DropMocks -- an amazingly simple little photo sharing site that offers the same functionality.
Open your pictures folder, select a few images, and drag them onto a DropMocks tab in a supported browser (Firefox ...
Photovisi is a simple online service which lets you select one of a myriad of templates, throw your images, and compile them into a digital collage. The results are very similar to those of the collage-making feature built into Picasa (Create > Picture Collage), but it's an online service.
You create your collage by adding images to an online canvas (you can add multiple images at once). ...
Picasa is awesome. The way that it integrates with Web Albums is very convenient, and the process of selecting your best images and uploading them to an online album is extremely polished. However, when the time comes to share this album with your friends, you might want to show them something a bit more personalized than a generic Picasa Web Albums link. If you are a professional or aspiring ...

The aptly-named Paint.Net PSD Plugin is one of those pieces of software which pretty much spells it all out right in the name. It's a plugin...for Paint.Net...(wait for it)...which lets you open files saved in Photoshop's PSD format.
Download the zip archive, dump the included PhotoShop.dll file into your Paint.Net FileTypes folder (usually c:\program files\Paint.Net\FileTypes), and you're ...
Cooliris is an awesome web browser plugin that lets you search and browse for images and videos from Flickr, YouTube, and a handful of other sites from a central hub. But what if youw ant a Cooliris-like wall of pictures without installing yet another add-on for your browser? CoolFlick is a web page that provides some of the functionality of Cooliris. But there's nothing to install. Just visit ...

Memeo's new Share application is designed to make the process of sending high-resolution photos a little easier, by sending them directly to another users desktop or putting them in an RSS feed they can look at in iPhoto. The application, which is currently in beta, isn't meant to be a substitute for any photo sharing application you might currently be using, although photos shared using Memeo ...
