you mean there's a non-addictive way to browse pictures on reddit?

I've been using http://pics.fefoo.com for a long time for the same purpose.

I was going to mention pics.fefoo.com too, but you beat me to it. :)

Very nicely made. My only criticism is the purple progress bar- what's the point of it? I thought I was going to run out of images when it filled up, but it just kept going. Is that filling an indication that it's going to yesterday's posts? It feels unneeded, it's distracting.

The point of it is to get you to keep clicking next.

Would be cool if you added pushState or /#/ history. You can for example use history.js: https://github.com/balupton/history.js

I can't imagine using this over reddpics. Their tiled interface allows me to browse posts faster than the normal reddit interface. This in contrast feels slower than either, since you can only see a single image at a time.

Or panoptikos.com even...

Or scrolldit.com

Why have one motivation when you can have two!
