Best... Addon... Ever....
If you spend any time searching for images, please try this....

I don't usually promote this stuff, but I'd feel incredibly guilty if anyone missed this most amazing addon for IE and Firefox.

It lets you smoothly glide through a 3D world of images searched from Google, Flickr, Yahoo, Deviant Art, and other sites that support the their API.

The way it works is, a little play button appears on top photos from supported sites, and when clicked, it brings up a scrollable 3D 'wall'. It's very practical and visually stunning all at the same time.

1. Wow... trippy....
was like I suddenly transported into a Smithsonian hall of Google images or something... way cool, if only to not have to click thru multiple pages... it was a bit mind bending...

4. Thanks for commenting
Yeah, I think it's really useful and practical when it comes to finding just the 'right' picture. I admit, though, I've noticed it occasionally crashes IE. So I usually use Firefox when using it. They came out with the Firefox plugin first and the IE version is still new.

2. Cooliris is NOT for mods.
A few mod terms ago the mod forum got trashed because of Cooliris.

3. How does a forum get trashed?
Are you talking about a bug in a CoolIris API or something? I'm confused.
