* Why don't publish your content under CC license? Internet is not some kind of painting gallery. If you want to protect your work, then don't hang it on the internet an keep all of it rolled in socks under the pillow.

 

* Why not to upload full resolution images? Are there still people with 640x480 resolution displays? Or uploading images over 9600bps link? If you want people enjoy your pictures, publish reasonable sizes.

 

* Why delete EXIF data? Is it really so much of artistic/intellectual property that it need to be hidden? Or do you want to look like you always use grandmothers medium format? If your cool editing and image tuning software cannot preserve EXIF data ... use Gimp.

 

* Why put watermarks in your images? Is it helping you to feel somehow more secure? Or just want to destroy your art before anyone else will do it? Watermarks are just not cool. If you want to kill your image, that's the right way.

 

* Why put borders around your image? Your sick sense of putting strangely coloured rectangles around images kills the plain look of flickr. If you don't know the border-fu, don't do it. If you want to create polaroid style images, find yourself a program capable doing it automagically.

 

If you agree or not, you are free to use FlickrMail.

 

* Fav shots you like.

 

* Make things simple.

 

Work like you don't need the money

Dance like nobody is watching

Sing like no one is listening

Love like you've never been hurt

Live like there is no tomorrow
