PhotonicApp.com - Desktop Flickr Client for Mac

Photonic is a Flickr desktop client for Macs. In classic Mac fashion, Photonic has a cool, elegant interface (it uses Core Animation for graphic effects) which makes it a breeze to upload and manage your Flickr photos. To use it, simply browse images using Finder or iPhoto, tag them, and add them to your photo groups and sets. Photonic also works as a Flickr browser in and of itself, so you can track your contacts, groups and explore photos from within the client, without having to enter Flickr at all. You can purchase a license for Photonic for only $20—until March 15. You will need Leopard and around 200mb to download it.

“Working with a lot of photos to upload can be a pain, especially with any sort of web-based interface. No matter how well-designed the interface is, you're still in a web browser and suffer from the limitations therein. The answer to effectively organizing and uploading tens, or even hundreds, of photos to Flickr is to use a desktop application specifically designed to help you accomplish this task. Enter Photonic.”

Photonic offers Mac users a super simple, clean and easy way to upload and view Flickr photos without having to enter Flickr at all. It has a sleek, stylish interface and it won’t put to much of dent in your pocket book.

How much will Photonic cost after mid March? Will Photonic add more tools—enhanced sharing capabilities, photo editing capabilities, etc?
