The status bar for uploading doesn't disappear and shows time out, 
however after reloading the Flickr website the uploaded photo does 
appear in my photo stream.
In the help forum there are plenty of messages on this problem, so I 
guess it will be solved.

Re: Mac mail and Flickr not playing nice

2023-05-12 Thread Godfrey DiGiorgi
I have the same issue with Flickr emails going to Apple Mail.app but it's not 
consistent: sometimes the email displays correctly, other times not. 

After doing some comparisons of the raw email data from about 20 emails, half 
of which worked and half of which did not, I saw three-four places where the 
Flickr output was inconsistent in both. So I judged it a Flickr email issue, 
documented what I'd found, and sent it to Flickr as a server side bug. 

So far as I can tell, they haven't fixed anything yet. 

It doesn't really matter much to me since the link always works and it's my 
photo that I'm being notified of … I know what my photo titles are and don't 
need the image thumbnail to recognize what is being highlighted.

Flickr sends me notifications when someone likes one of my photos.  Those 
notifications have a link to a thumbnail of said photo.  Macmailapp has stopped 
showing those and just shows me a little question mark instead.  I’ve tried

I fully agree with Godfrey on the value of Flickr Pro for image storage 
and easy presentation with private access or by friends, family or 
general public.
However I cannot store my DNG RAW files on Flickr so these I keep on

How much is a Flickr PRO subscription?

Monthly Retail price: USD $6.99, plus tax
3-Month Retail price: USD $18.99, plus tax (USD $6.33 a month)
Annual Retail price: USD $59.99, plus tax (USD $4.99 a month)

Monthly Retail price: €7.49, VAT inclusive
3-Month Retail price: €19.99, VAT inclusive
Annual Retail price: €65.88, VAT inclusive

US$60 per year is US$5 per month. Considering how many *thousands* of image 
files (5,329 as of this moment) they maintain on my behalf—both public and 
private access; JPEG and raw format—and how effectively the site works for both 
image presentation and web sharing photos to a half-dozen different photo and 
other forums, I consider that cheap: a bargain.

Generally, you get what you pay for. Free stuff is often quite without any 
value.

On reflection, that Flickr.com monthly charge is less than I spend per day on 
an espresso and a snack at the local cafe. Maybe I should start making my own 
espresso? ;)

Re: Photo Hosting Site - Flickr or.....?

2021-10-05 Thread Steve Cottrell
Thanks Igor - that’s really useful info.

I’ve signed up with Flickr and with a free account I get to upload 1000 images. 
That’s absolutely fine as I just want to do some quick galleries of 
boatbuilding stuff, a hundred or so.

I do have Amazon Prime and I didn’t know about the photo hosting so will take a 
closer look at that too.

I saw Google did it but it needs access to my photos and contacts and God knows 
what, which I’m not prepared to do. I don’t backup in the cloud, I backup 
manually locally so they can suck it!!

Thanks again mate

The free limit on Flickr is 1000 photos. I have been deleting some 
"unnecessary" posts to keep below 1000 but it looks like I will either 
have to go Pro or perhaps try a second free account with a different 
e-mail address. Pro is $59.50/a which is SAR900/a - quite expensive.

Flickr is much less effort to maintain than that, and has a community of users 
to interact with rather than just being your work on your website. I've done 
both; running your own website is a very different thing compared to 
participation in a service like Flickr.

As we announced on April 20th [1], Flickr has agreed to be acquired by
SmugMug, the photography platform dedicated to visual storytellers.
SmugMug has a long history of empowering people who love photography and
who want to improve their craft, making them a perfect fit for Flickr
and our creative community. 

NOTHING WILL CHANGE IMMEDIATELY WITH REGARD TO YOUR FLICKR ACCOUNT. The
Flickr product and brand will live on under SmugMug ownership. You will
still access the same Flickr you know and love at www.flickr.com [2] and
via our mobile apps. SMUGMUG AND FLICKR WILL REMAIN SEPARATE BRANDS and
you will continue to have options for free and Pro Flickr accounts.
Until we notify you otherwise, you will continue to use your current
login credentials. 

As a result of the acquisition, Flickr accounts will be governed by
SmugMug's Terms of Service for Flickr [3] and Privacy Policy for Flickr
[4]. The Terms of Service and Privacy Policy of Flickr's current owner,
Oath (formerly Yahoo), will not apply to the use of Flickr after the
acquisition. You have until May 25, 2018 to review SmugMug's Terms and
Privacy Policy. If you do nothing in that time, your account will simply
transition to SmugMug's Terms of Service for Flickr and Privacy Policy
for Flickr after the acquisition. 

If you do not consent to SmugMug's Terms and Privacy Policy, you will
need to delete your Flickr account through your Account Settings [5]. If
you want to preserve a copy of your photos, be sure to download them
from your Camera Roll [6] first. 

Read more detailed FAQs [7] about this transition on the Flickr Blog. 

We're happy that Flickr is your home for photography and we look forward
to the next chapter in our adventure together as we join the SmugMug
family. Thanks,
The Flickr Team

SmugMug will have to figure that out together with Yahoo. Yahoo
purposely reconfigured the Flickr authentication process to be
integrated with Yahoo's many years ago and I'm pretty sure that by now
all the original Flickr login credentials are history. Part of the
ownership cut-over will have to involve separating Flickr completely
from any Yahoo infrastructure in a clean way. It's been done before --
correctly -- so I'm confident it will happen in this case too and I'm
not too concerned myself.

I just hope they manage a cleaner cutover than the TSB/Lloyd's banking disaster.

The only problem I foresee with SmugMug buying Flickr is that when Yahoo owned 
them I had to use my Yahoo login to login to Flickr. And that's been so long 
that I don't remember my original Flickr username & password from BEFORE Yahoo 
bought them.


I'm wondering if there's going to be any problem resurrecting an independent 
Flickr login for those of us who don't want to use our Yahoo login for something 
that is no longer part of Yahoo?

Re: Text of e-mail from Flickr

2018-04-24 Thread Igor PDML-StR



Flickr has one very useful feature: you can search for images using 
specific type of license, such as Creative Commons.
This is useful for individuals (for blogs, presentations, small 
websites, etc.) and small businesses who want to use "free" images

without violating copyright laws.
I hope Smugmug will keep that.

Does Smugmug have that?
A while ago I've looked for that feature on various major photo-hosting 
websites, and I didn't find it.

I always disliked Flickr, for a number of reasons.  If it's Smugmug 
that's acquiring Flickr rather than the other way around you probably 
have nothing to worry about.  That said, either is still a lot better 
than Photo.net.

Re: Text of e-mail from Flickr

2018-04-21 Thread ann sanfedele
I've been off list for a few days and deleted all the mail for the last 
month or so.. glad to come back to see this


I'm a long time smugmugger and I love it... easy to upload, choices of 
landing page format and good levels of privacy settings. live chat for 
help..
I cant' even count how many images I've got there - I'vemade a bit of 
money through them, too.  I'm at the so called portfolio level.  I have 
pretty much total control over the way my landing page looks - easy 
search box at top of the landing page, and I can control the appearance 
of eachy gallery separately if I want to.


take a look at my landing page, Henk, but please, not on a phone- on a 
desktop :-)

Best,
ann

The choice of private/friends/family/public works fine. Also there are 
so many groups of common interest in subjects.
I also maintain on Flickr a community (public) image bank as the

I've no experience at all how current smugmug handles all this.

Re: Anybody else having problems uploading to flickr from lightroom?

2018-03-25 Thread P. J. Alling
I'm actually more annoyed by the nagging to disable my add blocker, 
which also has a very off-putting overlay on the page in my browser,   
every time I follow a link that takes me to flickr. I've gotten enough 
poorly executed web adverts that have either hung my browser and 
required a restart or simply slowed everything to a crawl, that my 
response is f&*k off and die.


So I simply turn off javascript, and reload the page.  Sure I can't use 
any of flickrs other features after that but why would I want to.

After the old Uploadr was no longer supported many months ago, I am 
uploading from  inside Flickr (upper arrow in cloud right above) and 
select my photos from the windows explorer. I haven't experienced any

Re: Stupid Flickr Question

Not to my knowledge.
A private photo is private in both photostream and albums.
A public photo is public in both photostream and albums.
An album is just a set or group of photos. Photos can be placed in 
multiple albums or none at all.

You can arrange (organize) the order in an album the way you want,

Flickr's help pages are kind of opaque & I haven't figured it out 
yet. The problem with the photostream is it has only ONE way to sort 
photos, in the date/time order you upload them.


I think the albums allow you to order the photos any way you want to.

Thanks! I'm quite proud of that one. It's the only real limestone cave in 
Southern Norway. It required a serious wide angle to capture, but I don't have 
one for the 645D. So I did a mosaic, and the resulting tiff is around 300 
megapixels, IIRC. Tough on the 'puter... :-)

Here's the culprit:

By the way fluidr is just a front end for flickr. You can just change 
the https to http and flickr to fluidr and you get:

I particularly like it for showing albums because it shows the pictures

By the way you have some annoyingly good photos in that album.
such as:
http://www.fluidr.com/photos/alunfoto/29632926134/

If I don't want the exif data, I tend to prefer the flickriver front end:

Possibly someone with a fairly large following found it,
clicked the "share" button and it snowballed from there.

A week ago I posted 16 images at Flickr to share with local
photographers; we have just submitted a number of entries to an
Austrian photo competition together, and use flickr to excange info
on our selections.

Then, much to my surprise, comments and views on one particular image
poured in like I've never seen before. It got almost 4000 "favourite"
clicks before attention waned. That's one order of magnitude above
any other image I've ever posted there. None of the other pics in
that album received any attention at all.

I really don't know much about the dynamics of the flickr site, but
somehow that particular image must have been picked up and given some
extra exposure. Any ideas what could have caused such a sudden blip
of attention?

Will post the image later.

Re: Q about flickr

2016-03-06 Thread Darren Addy
It is a secret how it works, so people don't game the system, but my
sense is that Flickr has a special stream set up for Explore
moderators to view. The photos included in that stream are those that
get a lot of favorites/to views ratio. More immediate reactions and
time of day (or day of week) can also enter into it. But I think a
human moderator picks from that stream (and probably has a certain
number of votes per day that each moderator can use). There may even
be a Super Moderator that looks at the lower moderator's choices and
picks from them. (These are all just guesses). But once you are in
Explore you are in a stream that a LOT of people look at. You'll find
a lot of people will favorite, but few will comment (based upon my
experience). That made me realize that a photo that people take the
time/effort to COMMENT on is probably better than one that people just
favorite.

But it is still an honor and a nice way to indicate which photos might
be saleable (resonate with the public). Would you mind sharing the
link to your Explored image?

Funny you should ask...
Something like that happened recently to me on smugmug...  the amount of 
hits on my page on feb 16 zoomed to 5,000
yet, the photo I posted that day only had the usual approximatel 200 to 
300 that I normally get when PEso'ing


Interesting that the anomally happens on other sites as well. very 
mysterious

A week ago I posted 16 images at Flickr to share with local photographers; we 
have just submitted a number of entries to an Austrian photo competition 
together, and use flickr to excange info on our selections.

Then, much to my surprise, comments and views on one particular image poured in like I've 
never seen before. It got almost 4000 "favourite" clicks before attention 
waned. That's one order of magnitude above any other image I've ever posted there. None 
of the other pics in that album received any attention at all.

I really don't know much about the dynamics of the flickr site, but somehow 
that particular image must have been picked up and given some extra exposure. 
Any ideas what could have caused such a sudden blip of attention?

Will post the image later.

Well, I’ve create the new account and successfully publish photos to it from 
Lightroom. In doing so I created a new Yahoo account with a new Yahoo user ID, 
thus associating the Flickr account with a distinct Yahoo user ID. I suspect 
that in creating the accounts I’m having difficulty recovering I didn’t do 
that, that I associated them with my ATT user ID.

I have my response from Flickr. (Or maybe it was Yahoo.) ATT is my ISP. ATT 
uses Yahoo Mail. They referred me to ATT. ATT is going to help me recover my 
Flickr accounts? I don’t think so.

I’ve responded calling attention to the inappropriateness of their response. 
I’m not optimistic that I’m going to get the help I asked for, which they 
clearly could provide. 

I think my solution is going to be to create new Flickr accounts. If Flickr is 
eventually able help me recover the old accounts, I will delete them.

Thanks, Darren. This was helpful. Actually, I have four Flickr accounts. But I 
have only one Yahoo account and log-in. I am able to log onto two of the Flickr 
accounts. Two I am not. The reason, which I was reminded of by your comment, is 
that I don’t have the correct username and password for these accounts. 

Recovering that information from Flickr/Yahoo is proving to be difficult. 
Apparently the only way to do it is to submit an email request with what 
information you have to Flickr customer servicer, which I have done. I may have 
to wait a couple days for a response.

Thanks again,
