Looks great on an initial use. Easy to use, great interface.

I just wonder if there's any way to view photos posted to a group....

PhotoBook Troubleshooting ReportLooks great, but crashes lots - Version: 1.0.2, 11/5/2007 03:42AM PST

Love this app, like the look of it, like the functionality, like the price, and I'm desperate to give it five stars, but it doesn't run for more than a few minutes on my rig before freezing or crashing. Once it froze when I tried to resize the main window, once when playing a slideshow, and then twice when downloading shots to iPhoto. I suspect my very unreliable wifi connection might have something to do with it, but maybe not. Anybody else seen this behaviour?

This is a great program. It works well, has a modern iPhoto '08 style interface, and it's free. I am surprised by the quality. It's one of the few programs I've added to my Dock after using once. That it downloads pictures into iPhoto from your friends' albums is amazing alone.

I wish it would allow uploads but there's an iPhoto plugin for that anyway. So I guess my only wish is that it would allow you to tag photos or add comments, but no big deal on that.
