I have a suggestion and i know you guys may have already thought of this but…my comment for piclens is that its great, a very helpful tool to brows and find pictures on the net, easy to use and navigate. My suggestion of course may be a little off and you may have copy-right issues. 1. It would be great if i could download and save pictures natively. 2. The ability to minimize so navigation to other pages can be possible without leaving my piclens window, thus having to re-search. 3. My final proposal is that, and believe me this will become very popular, is to ad the ability to search for videos(google, yahoo, youtube etc.) and one step beyond that, why not make it a browser especially dedicated to searching for videos and pics across the web. Thank you for your time and for the excellent programs you provide.

Thanks so much for using PicLens and for posting on our blog!
The newest release on our website piclens.com now supports 3D search for YouTube videos! We’ll be releasing this to Mozilla shortly after a couple of tweaks. Enjoy!
Thanks for your suggestions, too! Adding a save functionality and a way to jump back to the same place in PicLens after leaving are among our most popular requests.
We plan to add a load of new features in the coming months. Believe me, this is only the beginning. Stay tuned!
Much appreciated,
The Cooliris Team
