Re: Flickr?
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
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.

Mac mail and Flickr not playing nice
Flickr sends me notifications when someone likes one of my photos. Those notifications have a link to a thumbnail of said photo.

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

Re: Photo Hosting Site - Flickr or.....?
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. Alan C On 04-Oct-21 01:24 AM, Igor PDML-StR wrote: My wife has a flickr account.

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.

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. -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: Text of e-mail from Flickr
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.

Re: smugmug joining with flickr
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: Anybody else having problems uploading to flickr from lightroom?
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.

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.

Re: Q about flickr
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?

Re: Q about flickr
Thanks Darren! You're right. There was something about explore. Is that some kind of curated photostream? When I Google it, I only find dos/don'ts for how to get photos in there, and nothing on how it is selected or presented to users...

Re: Q about flickr
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 ann On 3/6/2016 10:28 AM, Jostein Øksne wrote: Hope there are some flickr savvy folks here who could help me explain something...

If Flickr > is eventually able help me recover the old accounts, I will delete them. 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. -- Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA eew...@bellsouth.net “Man has been a murderer forever.” - Peter Matthiessen. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

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.

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.
