A system, method, and computer-readable media are presented for presenting similar images of a selected image in a user interface. One embodiment of the method can include identifying a selected first image and identifying a selected direction from the first image. Additionally, the method can include calculating a best neighbor metric for each of one or more other images to determine a best neighbor image in the selected direction. Furthermore, the method can include presenting the best neighbor image to a user in a user interface.

User interface for navigating through images

A system and method are disclosed, that may include establishing communication between a first computer and a second computer over a communication link, the second computer having an image collection stored therein in the form of compressed image data; selecting a plurality of images in the collection for communication to said first computer; and transmitting low-resolution image data for all of the selected images from the second computer to the first computer before transmitting full-resolution image data for any of the selected images.
