Piclens is a interesting way of viewing images from websites such as Flickr. The pictures are displayed as a photowall with a smooth 3D effect when scrolling through.

Unlike some photo displays, this makes it easier to view images as they are loaded in the background, so there is less time spent waiting for new pages to load.

The images can also be shown as a slideshow, which is a lot like the Filmstrip view in Windows.

It's not just Flickr that works with Piclens. The full list includes: Flickr, Photobucket, Picasa Web Albums, Deviantart, Smugmug, Facebook, Myspace, Bebo, Hi5, Friendster, Google Images, Yahoo Images, Ask Images, Live Images and AOL Images.

Piclens is also available for Internet Explorer
