    Here is a list of browsers I have tested as working:

    • Firefox 2 
    • Internet Explorer 7
    • Safari
    • Netscape 7.2
    • Opera 9.1

    Please comment if you have tested any other browsers and they work/don’t work, so I can resolve this issue.

    If you’ve been getting the

    “This Photo is Currently Unavailable” message, I have fixed the

    code for generating URLs. Now quickr pickr looks up the photo URL for each photo instead guessing at it.

    Because quickr pickr now has to look up each photo it takes a little longer to generate the HTML code. This resulted in the page timing out before generating all the code, so I added some AJAX. Now each box says “Loading…” until the code has been generated.
    It may take up to one minute to generate the code but it now works for 200 photo entries!

    If your are still experiencing either of these issue please e-mail me.
    mail @ quickr pickr.com

    PS Thumbnails to small? To take a closer look at your photos try clicking on them in Step 2

    by being able to change the links allows users to create photo feeds with enclosures
    checking the enclosure box adds rel=”enclosure”, this tells feedburner that the linked file is an enclosure
