Flickroom

Here comes the much awaited update to provide you an even better Flickr experience! It is aimed at making Flickroom users even more powerful. Read on to find out all the new goodies in Version 0.28 Beta [available for download via http://www.flickroom.org/]:

• Upcoming Photography Events - Flickroom now provides you a way to find out upcoming photography events in your locality.
  • You can search for all kinds of events like Photowalks, Trainings, Workshops, or any other event you are looking for.
  • You can also add an event if you are conducting it somewhere.

  Flickroom’s event search is powered by Yahoo Upcoming.

• Fullscreen View - Now you can view photos in fullscreen mode also. A new button has been added just after the button to change background color of a photo. If you want to run a slide show in full screen mode, you first need to start the slideshow and then set the photo viewer to full screen mode.
• Group Discussions List - Support has been added to show discussions list of Flickr groups. You can see the discussion titles and their authors. For seeing the content of the discussion, you need to click on the link which will show the same to you in your default browser.
• User Profile Fixed - Recently Flickr modified its way to show user profiles breaking the Flickroom’s profile page as well. It has now been fixed with the current update.
• UI Improvement and Bug Fixes - A lot of UI polish across the application has been done. The comments view especially has been improved a lot. You can now click on author’s name or photo and see his/her profile or photostream.

Hope you will continue to enjoy Flickroom!

Happy Flickrooming!

Flickroom Team is back with a new update to provide you an even better Flickr experience! This update addresses the most-wanted feature by our users - Map for geo-tagged photos. Also, you will now be able to use some viewing related keyboard shortcuts.  Here is a lowdown of all the new stuff  in Version 0.20 Beta [available for download via http://www.flickroom.org/]:

• Maps Support: Now you can see Geo-Tagged photos in photostream view on a map:
  • Click on the ‘Map’ button available in the details bar of photostream

  

  • The markers on the map indicate the number of photos for that location
  • You can click on a tag to see the photos for that location
• Performance Improvement: You can now browser the photostream faster. Actually, till now, loading a photostream (or your photos or anybody else’s) would cause loading of the profile page also. Now Flickroom loads the profile page only when you actually want it.
• Keyboard Shortcuts: Viewing related keyboard shortcuts have been added:
  • F5 - Show/Hide the top panel
  • F6 - Show/Hide the filmstrip panel
  • F7 - Show/Hide the left panel (photo details)
  • F8 - Show/Hide the right panel
  • Tab - Show/Hide the left and right panels
  • Shift+Tab - Show/Hide all the panels
• Application Size: Minimum size of the application has been reduced to 900 x 600 (earlier, this was 1200 x 900). This would allow you to have a better experience on smaller screens (like netbooks and laptops).
• Photo Truncation Issue: Photos used to get truncated in some scenarios while resizing the center panel. This issue has been fixed now.
• UI Improvements and Bug Fixes: Lot of UI polish and fixes as reported by our beta users and found during our internal testing.

Hope you will continue to enjoy Flickroom!

Happy Flickrooming!
