Flickr remove ‘Set’ limit for normal member

Beside the 200 photos limit, the reason why I moved from normal member to PRO member is because of the limited number of ‘Set’ I can created in Flickr.

In Flickr, Set represent a group of photos. It is common, that we group photos according to the events or subject the photos were taken. That’s where ‘Set’ is very useful in Flickr, in order to heve the all photos nicelly arranged.  But back then, free user are being limit to create only 3 sets per acount.

Fast forward to now, the limit has been lifted (glad to know that). Free members are free to create as many as sets they wanted.  

Do you think 200 photos viewable limit will be lifted too? That’s the time, I’ll turn to free member again..

Apple iPhone still ranks in the top 5 of the most popular Cameras, which is calculated by how many photos uploaded using that camera in which Flickr can verify the variable representing the phone type and other pictures related attributes.

From this graph,  it certainly shows that iPhone is still ‘the king’ of camera phone in Flickr. iPhone applications such as Klick that allows user to be able to directly upload pictures from iPhone to Flickr, plays a significant role for iPhone to rank this far. The whole process is just very simple.

So how is your camera performing? Head to this page for details.

Flickr’s browser based file uploads getting better with multiple files selection

New browser-based file uploads

Forget the previous Flickr’s web based file uploads tool that only allows selecting 1 file at one time as well as limited files upload.

The new file uploads, now using Yui Uploader is a step forward to give greater experience to Flickr’s users. You can select multiple files simultaneously, upload them, and monitor the upload progress via new interactive user interface.

Any load failure or error exception will be shown there as well. The short video at the end of this post is demonstrating how it works, plus this screen shot below.

If you’re into more technical and are curious about the whole thing, you can read it here, but it is rather long and quite technical and is a complicated post for regular users. Dev might need this.

For end users, it is sufficient to know that you’re no longer has to go through the hassle process of loading your photos into Flickr. Enjoy!
