Facebook just rolled out their new photo viewer, for those of you who are on facebook what do you think of it? I'm not sure I like it at all!

I just found it today, do not like it at all. The old worked perfectly fine.

I like it. The fact that it dims all the peripheral garbage around the photos in itself, is worth it to me.

I like it too - not sure about the pop-up window feel about it, but I do like the way it presents the images, feels a little lightroomey when you dim the lights.

I like it. You don't have to go back to the page you were on, makes it easier.

I must have a buggy version of the photo viewer because it is totally distorting my images!
For me it really sucks. Those of you who like it, are your images showing up really small and distorted?

I absolutely hate it! It's badly designed and poorly implimented - and I swear it makes all my pictures look too dark :P

If it were a lightbox like alot of us use on our sites, that would be much better. But right now I think it looks disgusting
