Well it does work a tad better than Photo Show, but it has the same limitations. It won't show the LINKED large image from pages with thumbs. It will ONLY zoom the thumb itself. We have to manually visit the thumb linked page to get it to zoom that linked image if it really is bigger than our actual screen resolution. Otherwise it won't zoom anything either. The only plus over PhotoShow is that it centers the zoomed image instead of using remaining screen space. But because of the thumb zoom limitation and not actually showing the linked image. I'm giving it a 3-star rating just like PhotoShow.
