New Image Viewer: Mouser’s Media Browser

Mouser at DonationCoder has restarted work on an image viewer that will be part of the site’s annual NANY (New Apps for the New Year).

LolliPic: More Screenshots

I have removed the link to the Lollipic site and modified/’trimmed’ its review. Why? Lollipic, as I mentioned when posting this review, is very obviously a clone of ShareX.
