Take a look at 3 Flickr viewers, each of which displays Flickr photos “on black”, offers continuous scrolling, and allows you to authenticate with your Flickr account to comment or favorite to enhance your Flickr experience. Of course, each app is showing photos that are hosted on Flickr, with attribution and links back to the photo pages on Flickr.

Fluidr presents photos quickly and seamlessly. It even includes some EXIF data, the description and geodata as a map right next to the photo. Our favorite feature? Surprise! It gives you a random selection from one of the 4 billion photos in the Flickrverse. It couldn’t be easier to discover something new.

Darckr delights in its wealth of photo viewing options, from being able to see photos large to creating a skinnable background. We enjoy the ease of which you quickly add links to your photo’s descriptions to view them on black in Darckr. You can even quickly catch-up on your contact’s recent uploads with comment boxes built right into the page and one-click commenting on multiple photos.

Flickriver is a classic. Alex continually updates this application, adding new features which are sure to delight. Besides excellent and uncluttered browsing, you can also get a dynamic badge to display on your profile or website, showing off your own or your group’s photos. We really enjoy pulling up random selections from groups to find hidden gems buried in the pool. The map integration is stellar; search for a place and the map appears at the top of the page.
