Flickr photo sharing accounts changing .


Recommended Posts

I may be the only one here that uses flickr for online photo storage .

Everything has gone along quietly for years .

 

However just had an email to say they are "upgrading" accounts which usually means bad news !

 

Free accounts can be maintained as long as you have less than 1000 images .

 

For those that have more than 1000 images and don't want to upgrade to the £50 per year Super account to store more  ,  the oldest pictures will be deleted , in order to bring it down to the under 1000 limit .

 

Haven't checked yet but I think I'm under that amount but if anyone else in the past has used flickr it may lead to the loss of some images on here ?

I've had the same email because I have a flickr account, although I hardly ever use it.

 

They've obviously been watching the Photobucket fiasco. Now that PB have backed down (to a degree) and are only charging a small amount for hosting, flickr have obviously decided it's safe for them to do the same thing. They aren't going in heavy handed the way Photobucket did originally.
