But I have problems with it. I don't want to embed pictures one by one and I would like it to be embedded as thumbnails (the one you see when you click sets) Do you happen to know the fastest way? Zooomr is the best I could stay so far, but I can't last long without this feature. I am a Zooomr user. But I have problems with it.

Do you happen to know the fastest way?

Zooomr is the best I could stay so far, but I can’t last long without this feature.

I used to hate attention due to my age when I went to college early, so I hope you don't mind me making an issue of your age. It makes for an awesome story, though. Have you ever read <i>Hackers and Painters</i> by Graham? Just a couple of super productive coders can sometimes out do entire organization, and you're proof!<br /><br />So... are you guys buying more hardware so you can support all of us new users? :P Kristopher, I also wrote a piece about Zooomr for iDrone.net.

I do love me some Flickr and the community that I have built and become a part of there. This Zooomr does seem to be something special. The one issue that I have presently is the speed. At certain times it just seems to take forever to get into the site. I don't think it is local network issues on my end causing this performance problem.<br /><br />If Flickr ever does lose my business I would bet it will end up at Zooomr!

Every time I've tried it it takes a good 30 seconds whenever I click on anything in the interface. Am I the only person for whom Zoomr is unbearably, unusably slow?

That is pretty cool.
