Sniper: iPhoto for Flickr

You love Flickr? Then Sniper is for you! Sniper lets you browse Flickr photos in a native OS X application. What are the advantages? Well, with Sniper, you can drag, drop, and copy pictures, then proceed to browse them in an intuitive scrollable view. It’s faster and a lot easier this way. You like a picture? You can import straight into iPhoto in one click or simply download it. Here are some of the highlighted features in Sniper:
- View and manage your photostream and favorites
- View your contacts’ photos
- View photos from groups
- Download / send to iPhoto
Certainly, the software is missing some features due to API restrictions, but if you’re looking for a nice way to discover new pictures, Sniper is the perfect solution.
Sniper 0.5.7 is currently in beta and available from blackseely.com

Wow, the interface is a little weird but this is great! Browsing the Flickr website can, at times, be a bit clumsy.
id like it more if i could use it to upload to flickr aswell as browse it.
Loving the “Send to iPhoto” feature!
Cool app! I also love the Send to iPhoto feature. Great stuff…
Nice app. Send to iPhoto is indeed nice.
