I, for one, am hopeful they succeed in providing something that is worth my investment and worth my time spent on their site.
Photo supreme and flickr for free#
I have plenty of places I can dump my photos for free and be the product. I've been seeing headlines like "Flickr is dead since the 2005 acquisition by Yahoo." Somehow it's still here. Hopefully they will improve features to keep in line with the vision they have in mind. Being a dumping ground for everyone's cell phone photos wasn't a winning long term strategy for the company nor would it differentiate it from the pack.īeing a haven for photo enthusiasts might be (or that ship may have sailed, but there's no singular place these days for folks who love photography, like Flickr truly was in 2004) but at least they're trying to define who they are as a business and who they aren't. SmugMug is at least trying to refine and revive what the vision for Flickr is and try to improve on that. The clock is ticking it's time to download everything off Flickr before they begin their purge!Īgreed, if you want unlimited free storage you can send your photos to google and hope that they don't decide to shut that down as well.įlickr was at its best when it was a community, that was its defining core value. I personally have over 100,000 pictures and videos on there, and the news of SmugMug's new restrictions is very troubling.Īre there any other free alternatives to Flickr that could offer similar photo hosting features, particularly the option to store larger collections of original-quality photos? This is very bad news to all of us who have built up large collections of photos on the platform. This image acquired on Januby NASAs Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter shows an odd-shaped hole in Noachis Terra, clearly an impact crater.
Furthermore, starting February 5, 2019, Flickr will start to incrementally delete any photos that surpass the 1,000-photo limit, starting with the oldest and working their way to the newest. The HiRISE camera aboard NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter captured them on Dec. Supreme Court has made 'terrible decisions' - Biden.

According to PetaPixel, users will be able to upload over the 1,000-photo limit only until January 8, 2019, after which further uploading past 1,000 pics will be cut off. IBM has been accused of using Flickr photos for a facial-recognition project, without the full consent of people in the images. Instead of continuing to offer the astounding terabyte of storage like they have since 2013, the new limit will be slashed to a mere 1,000 photos per free account. A few months after their acquisition of Flickr, SmugMug is officially restricting the upload capacity of all free Flickr accounts.
