But sadly they've not implemented their version anything like as well...

The idea is sound, but the execution is terrible. Navigating through the screen shots seems to be off target, if you know what I mean, and once you click on one a pop up appears, urgh!...and to top it off it is not even the screen shot you were expecting...for example the Pinky & the Brain screen...click on it and where is that screen? bad, bad, bad. And once you have closed the pop up (because you were dissapointed that it isn't have the shot you were expecting) you have to find where you were last! I am sorry if I sound too opinionated, but I think you could heed my comments and do a better job. You are right, it is bloody awful. The idea is sound, but the execution is terrible.

By shoving all the other screenshots into the background when one receives focus, it becomes unwieldy. A better approach would be to keep the unfocused screenshots in place and to bring only the focused one forward. It has the potential to be a usable navigation with some tweaking.
