Any other Flickr users?

I use snapfish, because what I really wanted at the time I signed up was to order prints of my digital pictures, and they had the best prices.

I'm always looking for different photo sharing sites and hadn't tried this one yet. I registered and put the pictures of my latest trip to the butterfly conservatory here just to see how the site works.

Just some immediate observations, I too don't like the latest posted picture first concept. There should be a way to let you arrange your pictures the way you want them. I also think 10MB a month limit is pretty puny, but then that's what you get for free, guess I can't complain too much. I'm not too fond of the way they resize your pictures either, you're certainly not going to share any wallpaper sized pictures on this site.

I think, at best, this is a good site for someone who wants to quickly share a few snapshots with friends and family.

HP, you are a hell of a photographer.

Wow, thanks man... awful generous of you. You should look at 404's if you haven't already, it's cool stuff. Makes me feel a little inadequate. Heheh.

Yow! What's the thing that looks like a yellow Christmas cactus crawling up someone's arm?!

Nice, nice pics, indeed.

Thanks Els! That's some kind of leaf bug, I forget the exact name. One of the 'butterfly rangers' was walking around with it letting kids hold it if they wanted. Pretty cool looking bug.

Nice pictures, HM, I like that island picture and the 'big one' tape ball.

Some very nice photos there, 404.

Actually, they do let you upload higher resolution files and then determine who can have access to download them, but now that you mention it, the link to access the higher-res files seems to be gone... it was there a few days ago. Must be beta growing pains.

Thanks, HP! I meant to start my post complimenting your photography but got carried away talking about the Flickr site. You really got some great shots there, HP, you're definitely no slouch behind the shutter!

It's about time, man... you know how cranky I get when I'm not the topic of conversation. Speaking of me, did you notice how sexy I look in this shirt? Damn.

You're just too sexy for that shirt. :p
