Someone on another DPreview forum I read posted a flickr thread and I picked up a lot of nice new contacts with a lot of nice photos to view so I thought I would try it here.
Who uses flickr for photo hosting? (And a link to your flickr gallery would be nice too...)
Hi there

My Flikr introduction came when I received a gifted "pro" account this past Christmas. It has quickly become my favorite photo sharing website. Flikr is very versatile in sharing images and ideas, however that seems to equal complexity as well and have not fully learned how to best to take advantage of the site.
The site has been a great tool to look at specific cameras and lenses to learn about their IQ. The versatility has equated to a longer learning curve in utilizing what it offers. Today I posted photos for family only and it proved to be cumbersome when family memebers had not yet set up their accounts. I read that their is a guest user type that may see these restricted photos however was not able to figure how to use the feature with a bit of time invested. Some of the other features don't seem to be that intuitive; ie. the slide vieiwing is great but not readily found or noticed; I still do not know what the non-pro users have in comparison to the pro users.
