  1. Statistics error, what are we paying Pro prices for??

    Statistics are not correctly reconciling a days activity. Way out of Whack from views on photo to what is counted. Been steadily degrading for several days now. Today is worst. What is being done to fix this?

          • Windows 10 Universal application

            hello, im writing in the name of Windows 10 community which contains hundreds of thousands of users. Currently there is no official Flickr client on that platform, but i suggest to create one, because its money lying on the street. The best idea would be to create Windows 10 Universal application, working on every Windows 10 device, from smartphone, through tablet and Xbox console, ending with classic desktop or laptop. I think creating such client will ease the life of thousands of Flickr users working within Windows 10 ecosystem. There is much space to gather and many new opportunities to…

            • Basic instructions on how to use Flckr

              Why not include a simple 'how to' tutorial for new members. Having just joined, I haven't a clue how to use the site and am completely baffled by it.

              • Subscription Renewals

                When you send an email reminding me that my subscription is due for renewal, it would be good customer service to include the cost.

                It is not very professional or customer friendly to send, what is in effect, a bill, without stating the actual cost.

                • Pop-up to sign up

                  My friends, who don't have a Flickr account, get a small window popping up when get to my page. It tells them that they should sign-up to get updates when I upload pictures. They don't want to sign-up, because they don't need a page. But the window will pop-up ON EVERY SINGLE PAGE of my account, whatever they have answered the first time. They showed me and this is VERY ANNOYING. Please don't upset non-Flickr guests to my page, they may not want to spend time on it!!!!! Not a good way to recruit new people, you upset them instead.

                      • Better UI options

                        You need to make the layout more user friendly!!!! When I installed the uploader you now provide it made a complete mess out of my Albums / Photostream. And to fix this with 20,000 plus photos I have to view them in the Photostream and scroll up and down on every photo. For those of us with the resolution to handle it I would like to see a side by side option instead of top and bottom panes. In this day and age of user interfaces your is seriously slaking. I have a widescreen monitor for a reason, right now…

                                Saying "10 following" doesn't sound clear who's following who. Something like "10 followers, following 20" would be clearer

                                  Come on guys, get your act together. From four different ISPs, in three different geographical locations, I am forever having to patiently navigate my way through a sea of "Connection refused" errors or page timeouts.

                                  As an individual, not such a big deal, but as the lead developer of a website with over 100gb/month traffic and thousands of active users, that we encourage to use Flickr to store their photos for easier integration with our system, it goes beyond frustrating.

                                  What gives?

                                  Sort it out, guys. I've had to resort to host file entries on our servers (and at home!)…

                                    Hi Michael,

                                    Thank you for your comments and information!

                                    Our team is currently working on the investigation. But, we’d need more of your help to find out more details. If you do’t mind, could you provide the traceroute results to up.flickr.com? Also, please post any updates to this issue here.

                                    Thanks for your Support again!

                                    Regards,
                                    Product Support

                                  • Allow me to create and fill an album without having to fill my main photostream with images.

                                    I want to fill an album with hundreds of images, but I don't want them on my main photostream. I tried putting them up, then creating an album, then removing them from the main photostream but that deleted the album as well. I want the photostream for one-offs and small sets, and, separately, the albums for larger collections.

                                    • Flickr app- Should be able to embed photos into group discussions.

                                      It is really frustrating to not be able to embed photos into group discussions via phone. Many groups would benefit from this. I am in a daily photo journal group, and can only work on it from my desktop at home.

                                      There should be an easy way to copy the HTML for different sizes (or even if just set on medium 500) in the app.
