Horrible to navigate these days
I had to go and renew my Pro subscription today, but the email did not tell me how me how much the fee was. So I went to the site to try to figure it out. It took me 5-10 minutes to find the correct page, and then it didn't even display the fee. I had to click Edit to actually view the amount I was paying. I really don't understand why you guys keep making the interface harder and harder to use. I am TECH SUPPORT and I can generally navigate a website pretty quickly, because that's my job,…

Revert to the "contacts" terminology for accounts that interest you instead of "followers" and "followees"
The identity of a site should be reflected by the choice of terminology:
The term "contact" implies a degree of mutuality - however, the term "follower" does not per se - I would like Flickr to emphasize precisely that "sharing" aspect of the site - also in relation to the recent behaviour of the phone app which allows the user to "follow" tens of thousands of accounts, which effectively kills the aspect of mutuality.

Thank You!
Dear Flickr Team
hi
as you well know, there has been allot of discussion, criticism, and debate around Flickr's redesign and updates. First of all, regardless of the nature of such comments - that's a good thing, for it shows people still care and want to keep it up and running.
Of course nothing is perfect, or free of mistakes, but I just felt like saying thank you to all the people who thought, invented, coded and gave real care and devotion to making Flickr better, while keeping it from breaking apart along the way.Just noticed the magnifying glass…

Adverts for Pro members??? Disgraceful.
I bought Pro membership on the promise of no adverts and no you have adverts right at the top of the photostream specifically targeting pro members who paid not to see them.

make your site easy to navigate. it really sucks
I can rarely find any info on your site on how it works or why i would pay for it. Like most websites those designing it would go hungry in a real world situation. I have been a member for several years, but find it virtually incomprehensible beyond posting photos.

You can let people know how the heck to pay for services that they WANT to pay you for!
How about letting people know how to pay for services like a Pro Account,which I've had for years and can't seem renew now,and for which they WANT to pay you for!

show only public photos in my photostream
I would like to have a possibility to show only public photos in my photostream like in mobile app (iOS), where i can switch between "All" and "Public" photos. Because of if you have turned on the automatic uploads from phone you will have a mess in it then.

Bring back the notes detail.
I spent a lot of time including notes of further detail on my photos. I was stunned when that data disappeared. I am now looking for another place to house my photos so that, at someone's whim, the entire format will not change. My membership expires in July '15. If the notes are not restored by that time, I will not renew my membership. What a shame; Flickr was so easy to use and my favorite website. :{

Searching on a place name yields only one set of results.
Recently Flickr has changed the way it delivers items when searching on a place name (such as a country or city). Instead of getting different sets of "relevant" and "interesting" results we are being offered that same set of images for each of those choices. Moreover these new results are neither interesting nor relevant in many cases. If this is a new search algorithm it is a very poor one.
The bizarre thing is if you simple place quotes around the term being searched the expected relevant and interesting results are available and they seem to meet the aim in…

Don't require a phone number for new account sign up
Even if I had a cell phone, I should not have to give it out to a company in order to use a service completely unrelated to the operation of said cell phone, regardless of your promises in your terms of service. I consider that personally identifying information that I will not provide. In fact, the amount of information that you request for a new account is quite ridiculous. I could not find a way to sign up without creating an entirely separate yahoo account. Why do I need one more account to keep up with? If your service is…

Flickr auto-generates inappropriate (and invisible) tags for new photos
Hello,
I have just discovered that Flickr automatically generates tags when I upload a new photo - presumably based on some image recognition software - which are not visible to me, and which at least sometimes are inaccurate or even inappropriate.
I just did a test: uploaded a studio photo of my 10-years old daughter (dressed in a kids dress), with no tags, title or description. Within 10 minutes the photo was viewed more than 10 times. As I am a Flickr Pro user, I could see the detailed stats. What I discovered was that the photo was found 5…
15th rankedThanks for your feedback on this important issue. We agree that Flickr members should have more control over autotags, and we’ll add this soon. Also, until we can handle cases like this better, autotags like “bikini” and “swimsuit” are not appropriate, so they have been removed.

remember last viewed image
I like the beta camera roll and group photo viewer.
However, I would like Flickr to store the most recently viewed (or loaded, if easier to implement) image in groups and personal photo streams that I subscribe to/follow. This would allow me to go back to where I left last time I was looking at the stream and watch new additions in the order they were added.

User defined groups list experience
Allow users to choose the layout (grid vs list). Allow a group to be flagged as a favorite so it will be in the top row of a grid list. Use cookies to store the preference for how the groups should be displayed (list vs tiles) You could even allow users to choose large vs small icons for the group tiles if there are load speed considerations.
