Are you on Flickr?

[Harvestman]

As I get more and more into photography, I find myself spending more and more time on Flickr, the photo-sharing website (other websites are available). It has sort of become my second home on the internet, after this place.

So who else is on there? What is your Flickr name? I'm hoping there are enough of us to build up a little BCUk network.

I'm on there as Cefn Ila

Some really nice photos on there from everyone. I'm on Flickr as pterodaktyl, although I've been a bit lax about uploading stuff recently.

 

[Elen Sentier]

Nice idea, Harvestman. I'm on as Elen Sentier

I do enjoy looking at people's photos

I'm on flickr as ''Sami Knives'' (used to be on British blades before discovering nature and being outside and such) http://www.flickr.com/photos/60911158@N06/
I'm now using photobucket because my flickr account was full. http://s1300.photobucket.com/user/Samiknives/library/?sort=3&page=1

I'm on Flickr - mostly fact based recordings for what I am up to and articles - about 5,000 pictures under British Red

Great! More people I can stalk!

Is that so? Then I shall quit using photobucket. If only to not have to see those commercials every time I upload a picture.
Also Flickr lets me choose the size of the photo I want on the forum.

Made photobucket public too now. Strange it wasn't already because I only use it to put pictures on here.
Thanks!

Given the use I get from it I found paying for a pro account on Flickr to be worth it.

What are the extras you get that you find worthwhile? I'm interested ...

 

[Harvestman]

Mainly that the 200 pictures limit is removed. As I have over 2000 images on there...

My account, which is free, says ... "When you have a free Flickr account, you can upload up to 1 Terabyte worth of photos." so I'm not sure I understand the 200 pictures thing.

OK, further reading HERE makes more sense of it, seems they no longer offer the old Pro in the old way.

I do have an account but i find it more difficult to use than Photobucket.

Recently a friend put me onto the National Geographic forum. There's some really high quality stuff on there
