Photonic goes 1.0

The last time that we took a look at Flickr upload utility Photonic, it was still in beta. Photonic's developer Barton Springs Software has just released Photonic 1.0 -- a major step up from the beta.

In addition to the various bug fixes, Photonic also received the following features:
  • The ability to add favorites and photosets
  • New option to send FlickrMail to the owner of a picture via a contextual menu on photos in a stream
  • New option to go to the photo's page is now a contextual menu
  • Drag and drop images to the application icon or to the source list to add the image to your upload queue
  • Double click now zooms in on image rather than going to Flickr
  • Set favorites on Flickr now
  • New tabbed preferences window
  • New preference for the number of concurrent downloads (previous default was 3)
Possibly the best new feature that has been implemented for 1.0 is the full screen preview. You can now see your (or your friends) Flickr photos full-screen; this is really handy for when you want to show off a set of pictures. Photonic is available as a trial download from the developer's website, and it's currently purchaseable at a special price of $20 until March 15th.

I am messing with the demo, when I upload photos, can I upload and have it create a new set for those photos?

Thanks for the great app.

Not yet, but I'll add it to the Feature Request list if it's not already there.
