Flickr has redesigned the photo page, the primary page used on Flickr.com by users.

The changes include:

• Photos are 28% larger now
• Navigating from photos and to photos is faster now
• A new lightbox feature to enlarge photos
• Preview up five photos at a time
• Changed location of photo’s title, description, when a photo was taken, it’s location, camera/exif info and your name in one location to the right of the image.
• Centralized photo actions, like embed, delete, etc.

I have been using the beta for a few weeks and I do find the overall new design much faster and more useful.
