Flickr Reviews

Flickr is a fun boredom-buster.  It's fun to browse all the wonderful pictures.  But, be careful, it's easy to get carried away and spend hours wrapped up in fascination when you should be working.  — When I first heard about Flickr I was afraid it would be no fun to look at.  I thought that a site where anyone could upload pictures of anything would be full of boring low-quality snapshots that I wouldn't care to peruse.  I envisioned a bigger version of people's myspace picture albums.  It's not like that at all.  It's not thousands of teenage… read full review »

I grew up in a photography-filled household and knew my f-stop from my DOF at a young age...recently, I started reading more and more about digital photography and then discovered Flickr. The groups on Flickr (and there's at least one group for just about any photography topic you can name) are full of really friendly people who either know the answer to my questions, or can easily direct me to websites and other resources. — I love "Explore" area of the site, where new shots are featured each day. Explore "Explore" is all I can say. — Anybody can sign up for a Flickr page for… read full review »

I am an online journal user, and I found Flickr through other online journal users in my community.  I've used Snapfish before, and KodakGallery. . . all the familiar ones.  I find that my biggest need is not printing photography, but storing photography.  A lot of the standard photo storage sites require purchase. . . and there's no real sharing of photos.  Meaning, I could only store my own albums, but I couldn't see what others were doing.  It just got boring. —  When I first started using Flickr, I really wasn't sure what to do with it.  It didn't… read full review »

I can only say good things about Flickr! I love this site! It is PERFECT for storing your photographs, and sharing them as well! It's a great community for photographers-amateurs and professionals as well! It is FREE, although you can upgrade for a small price! (Which I have-and do every year!) — I also love that I can link to my photos on Flickr from my blog! A+ photo site! —… read full review »

I like Flickr because of the easy uploads, the storage capacity and the easy way to share your photos with others.  Also, being able to mark photos or albums as private so that only you can see them, makes me feel more confident of uploading family photos to a public website. — — Photos on Flickr can be viewed in a larger format than some other photo sites. You can actually see a screen size shot or slideshow instead of some of the smaller displays that other sites have.  Also there is the option for others to download a photo if you give the permissions. That's a nice… read full review »

Don't use this program.  Flickr gives little memory for free.  Even when you pay for extra memory they limit the number of images you can share.  You cannot send just the URL's to you albums, you cannot share more than one album, you cannot share a collection, you cannot share more than 200 images and if you find this out after you paid for the extra memory you are out of luck, they have a NO-REFUND policy in the fine print that you can easily miss.  All-in-all I am not… read full review »

Flickr to me has grown over the last few years in quality and ownership. Flickr Is part of the Yahoo Group. Ive been a member for quite some time and have an lot of fun, met quite a few people with the same interests. Some of these people now also belong to other sites with me. I find its easy to use interface to upload plus the are many widget like tools you can use at other sites to show you pictures posted at Flickr...… read full review »

Flickr is a terrific site to upload all your best photos and organize them in any way you choose. You can also copy (share) the best of other people's photos in a section called favorites adding even more beauty and excitement to your site. There is really no limit to what you can do. Try it, you'll love… read full review »

Ever since I downloaded the flicker program, I keep getting other peoples pics on my computer.  Now this is what it's supposed to be, a shared pic program, but you can't be choosy...it downloads them all!!!  Many great picks, but I don't want them as part of my "family"… read full review »
