I've just put up a site which aggregates a number of rss image feeds, and allows the users to vote on the images. I'm looking for feedback on the interface, ideas, how easy it is to figure out, and any other comments you may have. Since the image feeds are pulled from a number of sources, I need to put a potentially NSFW warning here although the majority of the images are the usual funny internet pics, and AP images from yahoo news, etc. Feedback is appreciated. Thanks.
The site is:
www.picturesnack.com

Looks like a good idea, I may bookmark it.
One thing: When hitting the "next page" link, it takes/leaves me at the bottom of the page after the pics change.

Thats very interesting, and a great way to pass the time during slow times at work.
As far as suggestions go, from my limited use so far I'd like to see a little more separation between the 'Snack Bar' and the 'Most Tasty' sections. Or maybe just make their titles more apparent. At first I didn't know what I was looking at. Also I'd prefer to have the 'Most Tasty' section have more photos viewable at one time. Maybe make them smaller, and click to enlarge?
Cool site. I am hooked.

Great site. I agree with the others, show more pics at a time (preferable make the number of pics user selectable). Also, you might want to move the "Go to top snack" link a bit further from the next/previous page buttons. I accidentally clicked it - twice - and had to start over.
Found this one while looking

Shouldn't your code have a DOCTYPE? Otherwise, I believe it throws browsers into quirks mode.

I'm on dial-up, and although I understand it would take a while to load the page never seems to finish loading. ever. do the images rotate while you're looking? it seems that pictures that were loaded are now gone... oh, i just noticed a 'speed' thingy. i'll try lowering that.

It uses javascript to update the page without refreshing. So it should always be loading new images. If new images are popping up before the old ones load, then lowering the speed should help, and keeping the number of images to load from the dropdown box at 1 or 2.
