Is the limit for a free account photostream still 200?

Holy hell! Just yesterday I was browsing flickr angry as hell because I just found out about the imposed 200 photo limit in the photostream (the rest would get hidden unless you tagged and grouped them) now all my pictures are there!!! WTF HOLY FLICKR! OMG OMG OMG!"

just here i was complaining about it yesterday!

Does anyone watermark their photos before uploading?

to test it, i uploaded pics i took of the storm that hit here yesterday, didn't get any of the tornado though :(

works great actually :p

Nah, they are covered under copyright im sure people would still use them without promission but meh. People ask me to use my photos some times and I letem.

naw watermarking is time consuming.

I'm just glad that for now I can continue to stay with my pro account for $24.95/yr. The new $50 ad free tier is pretty lame. Yahoo definitely wants to drive everyone towards the free account since they probably will make more money off you in ad revenues that way. Still this is all good news to the majority of flickr users which were non-pro account users anyway, I believe.

As for the design; I think the single photo viewing page needs some work to have some of that old look and feel. Also the ability to customize how your photostream looks needs to come back.

Most users over at their forums seem to be very annoyed with the interface... I like it though...

    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
    • Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.
