Thank you both! I've been using Flickr for a decade now, and had a "pro" account for most of that. It works pretty darn well overall, I have no complaints. Their 'new' pro account setup's new feature is really that the price has been doubled, but at $50 a year for unlimited storage and whatever other plusses they add into the mix, it's still pretty darn cheap to have a reliable imageserver that you can easily link to or embed images from.
The biggest negative about Flickr is that you have no control over the photo presentation layout, but, eh? If I'm really going to worry about that, I'll get a Smugmug account or create my own portfolio website, like I did in the past. (I routinely strip the EXIF data from most of my photos so it doesn't have much to show unless I want it to. I think EXIF data is more commonly a distraction than a plus when I'm trying to show photos, which is why I just strip it out. What I want in my photo metadata is the IPTC data: keywords and other annotations that I add in the rendering phase. I add 'tech info' to my photos when I think of it and want to give the measurebators information to chew on. Yeah, I'm weird that way. ;-) G — No matter where you go, go there on a Guzzi. > On Nov 5, 2018, at 4:56 PM, Mark Roberts <postmas...@robertstech.com> wrote: > > Steve Cottrell wrote: > >> On 5/11/18, Godfrey DiGiorgi, discombobulated, unleashed: >> >>> https://flic.kr/p/29TUMfw >> >> Not a fan of coffee shop shots, but that is simply superb.
