"After about 5 months on the market, flickery has already become a much-used client for the flickr platform" said Matthias Gansrigler of Eternal Storms Software. "To be able to watch videos uploaded to flickr within flickery in a non-obtrusive, easy to use interface is something we've wanted to do all along. Finally, we're able to deliver - and it's awesome!"

"We're very proud of what flickery has already become in this short amount of time and want everyone who owns a Mac and uses flickr to give flickery a try. So with version 1.5 - as we did with 1.1.1 - we're adding 7 days to the trial period for everyone who already has exceeded the normal 15-day trial."
