Journal is now PicLens enabled

I’ve just enabled PicLens on this journal for certain photos. If you aren’t using PicLens, I highly recommend installing the FireFox plug-in; it’s a beautiful way to look at images on the web. Pretty much all photo sharing sites support it now, including Flickr, Facebook, Picasa, and SmugMug.

I’m using WP PicLens Plus and a Photo Mechanic export setting to get all of this to work. Currently, all of the image display code is just inlined into the body of the Wordpress entry. I know that’s not ideal, but it was the best I could do without having to actually code. ;)

Here’s a demo of PicLens, using some photos I took of Jack last week. Obviously, you must have the PicLens plug-in installed to see it work.

   Adam Tow just installed PicLens on Safari, and it doesn’t seem to work for him on this page (in Safari). Anyone out there seeing PicLens support here on Safari?
