Flickr
OK, so I started playing around with Flickr yesterday (I know, I’m late to the party, let’s just move on) and I’m trying to decide if a Pro account is worthwhile. As I’ve seen that lots of y’all (Jeri!) who visit here have Flickr accounts, I thought I’d ask your opinions. (Nathan, your photostream is disturbing. I’m just sayin’.)
If you’ve poked around my website, you’ve noticed that I already have a pictures section that I’ve been keeping up for several years (and interestingly, if you look around even more, you’ll have a good idea of when my depression started to get out of control.)
It seems to me that a Flickr account would make what I’ve been doing by hand much faster and easier (Yes, I actually have an Excel spreadsheet to calculate smaller versions of my images.) With this in mind, would I be better off paying for a Flick Pro account? It seems like it would save me a lot of time, but I’m wondering if there are any drawbacks.
I mean, it’s all good and well to do web design by hand, but just like blogging, using software that’s already created for the job seems a whole lot easier.
Any opinions?
