Join in the protest against the new layout of flickr.com. Download a Flickr Black Day image and post only the black day "image" to your photostream on December 8, 2013.

Please sign it:

petitions.moveon.org/sign/change-flickr-back?source=s.em....

********************************************************************** ************

This is a symbolic mark of protest against the new Beta change which Flickr proposes to force upon all users ..

If you wish to make protest, then please only upload a " Black " picture on the 8th December

*** This is available for download should you wish.

With the new platform Beta Team Flickr intend to make further changes that will limit severely the exchanges between users:

1 - There will be no white space below the photo for description, comments or invitations to groups

2 - Difficult to write a comment that contains more than 3 words

3 - We can not see who supports our pics

4 - We can not see in which groups the photo appears

5 - The images of the award will not be visible

6 - The visits will no longer be visible. The latter will only appear in Recent Activity, others will be lost.

7 - For Admin it will become impossible to manage groups so many will close.

8 - Our descriptions, including quotes, links to YouTube or other sites will be hidden

( translated from Italian )

Changes should not delete/destroy/ruin the very factors which caused us to join flickr in the first place ...

Example of page showing how the Beta Flickr shall be.... in first comment.

********************************************************************** **************

"Yahoo has new ideas. flickr is offering 1 TB free space for all accounts. Those who want to be rid of advertisements have to pay.

I appeal you all those who plan to quit, to change your mind and stay. You can make use of your accounts just for storage. Make your accounts private, make this image public and use flickr for storage. You can save on external hard disks.

If we check in to a hotel room seeing it's features, should we bear it without a word of protest if they take away the furniture one by one including the bed ? flickr should know that the people who protest are not against 'changes'.

Changes shouldn't steal away the utilities that made people choose flickr.

Protest ! flickr is not just the property of few people who get paid to serve the people that make it. If they offer 1 TB free space for every account, the salaried people who planned it have advertisements in mind. Many unique special utilities made people like you and me join flickr, and flickr is taking away all what that made us choose it. Now the only special thing in flickr is 1 TB free storage. Let's then make use of it, without caring about flickr's revenue. We can seek better places for what we like, still keep this place for storage. If the 'hotel' stinks and cheated us, make it your warehouse or sty. If this is forced on us, you can make your account private, store everything here; display , share and comment elsewhere.

Thank you.

Anuj Nair"

Users of the English version of Flickr may have got the botton " try our new experience Beta"

This is an incredible regression .....once again

No longer any white space underneath pictures for comments, description, invitations etc....

Everything is gathered in a tiny sidebar to the right of the photo in the Lightbox

All features that allow interaction and sharing have gone so groups might also disappear ......

You may take a look here

yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/224533-flickr-photo-page-beta

If you want to save the groups from a certain death, Please click this blue link and go to vote

yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/224533-flickr-photo-page-beta/...

We had got used (more or less) the first changes, but this time, it is a

total scuttling of Flickr and of its spirit of sharing :(

We can't see who faved our pictures

We can't see the groups the pictures appear in ( except only 8)

Awards images. are not shown

Invitations are not visible except for the last ones (only in "Recent Activity").They're lost.

For admins group management will become a work more and more difficult or even impossible

Groups might close......and groups add visibility to our pictures

Our descriptions including quotes or links to YouTube or other sites are hidden

NO LONGER ANY CONVIVIALITY.. ANY VISIBILITY . NO SENSE

*I specify for those who haven't seen the Beta page;that there is NO

white area under the pictures for descriptions / comments / invitations /

flickr Award Counter

Only a narrow sidebar to the right of the image ,showing ONLY the last 4 comments

White print on a black and depressive background, that hurts the eyes

Unfortunately everything we can do is absolutely useless ....

Unfortunately it is obvious that Yahoo wants to turn Flickr into another social network for teens and young using only tablets and smartphones and whose only interaction is Hi or Lol

Motivated photographers using computers and large screens are no longer interesting users.... ( nor groups since our invitations are only visible on our "Recent Activity "Page....The oldest are lost ....)

How many people know what represents the Beta Page ?? I wonder ?

Only some users of the English version of Flickr ..... but not all of them

All this is very discouraging

T H A N K Y O U !!!!!!!!!

Did you know that flickr has been testing a new beta version of flickr?

I haven't actually seen the beta page but I've had it described to me:

"...there is NO white area under the pictures for descriptions / comments / invitations / flickr Award Counter

Only a narrow sidebar to the right of the image ,showing ONLY the last 4 comments

White print on a black and depressive background, that hurts the eyes

No sense. Hard to write comments exceeding 2 or 3 words

We can't see who faved our pictures

We can't see the groups the pictures appear in ( except only 8 )

Awards images. are not shown in comments : which means that neither members nor admins can check

Admin-Invitations are not displayed ( the last ones are visible ONLY in "Recent Activity").The oldest are lost

For admins , group management will become a work more and more difficult or even impossible

Some groups might close......and groups add visibility to our pictures

They allow us to admire beautiful works and to meet with great photographers.

Our descriptions including quotes or links to YouTube or other sites are hidden

NO LONGER ANY CONVIVIALITY.. ANY VISIBILITY . NO SENSE

In fact this layout specifically targets tablets and smartphones"

This Sunday December 8 2013 is FLICKR BLACK DAY in order to protest against the upcoming change that will soon be implemented.

If you wish to join the protest against this new Flickr layout you may download this image.

_Feedback

Unfortunately everything we can do seems absolutely useless ....

Yahoo and Flickr don't care

Unfortunately it is obvious that Yahoo wants to turn Flickr into another social network for people (mainly teens and young ) using only tablets and smartphones and whose only interaction is Hi or Lol

Motivated photographers still using computers (with photo-softwares) and large screens are no longer desirable customers....

( nor groups since our invitations are only visible on our "Recent Activity "Page....The oldest are lost ....and everything is done to impede their functioning)

Advertising is much much more lucrative than our Pro accounts .......

How many people know what represents the Beta Page ?? I wonder ?

Only some users of the English version of Flickr ..... but not all of them

Users of any other language have not been informed.... amazing No ??

All this is very discouraging

A big special Thank You to Marissa Mayer

Bravo ..You will be be erected a Big / Great / Magnificent / Majestic statue on the ruins of Flickr .... Well deserved

We Choose to Fight: Nobody Elected Elon Protest by Geoff Livingston

6

Pics from this afternoon's "We Choose to Fight: Nobody Elected Elon" MoveOn protest at the Department of Treasury.

Just based on what I saw, I'd say 1500 people came to fight back against the oppressive, dehumanizing techniques of the current administration.

I really did not want to go, I feel so scarred after the Proud Boys visits in 2020. But I could not look myself in the mirror and stand back anymore. So just like 1.0, all of these photos are available on Flickr in Creative Commons for media, influencers, and everyday people like me and you to use. Or just take and share any of these.

New York FCC Office, 201 Varick St., Room 1151 (Map)

New York, NY 10014

Thursday, May 15th, 12:00 PM

***contact for permission to use***

"Message from Mary S.: The future of the Internet as we know it is at stake. The FCC is proposing rules that would kill the open Internet and create a fast lane for companies that can afford big fees and a slow dirt road for the rest of us. We're fighting back--and we're being heard. This Thursday, May 15, the FCC will meet in Washington, DC, to vote on whether or not to advance this proposal. We'll rally in DC, but we won't stop there: We'll gather at FCC offices in 24 cities to send shockwaves through the FCC bureaucracy until they restore real Net Neutrality and protect the Internet for all of us."

Flickr protest by Sidia09

6 3

The following description was taken from a fellow Flickr user (www.flickr.com/photos/timelessriver/).

"BELOW ARE INFORMATIVE COMMENTS FROM OTHERS ABOUT FLICKR BLACK DAY:

Join in the protest against the new layout of flickr.com. Download a Flickr Black Day image and post only the black day "image" to your photostream on December 8, 2013.

PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION:

This petition against flickr's changes needs 10,000 signatures. it already has nearly 5,000.

Please sign it:

petitions.moveon.org/sign/change-flickr-back?source=s.em....

********************************************************************** ************

This is a symbolic mark of protest against the new Beta change which Flickr proposes to force upon all users ..

If you wish to make protest, then please only upload a " Black " picture on the 8th December

*** This is available for download should you wish.

With the new platform Beta Team Flickr intend to make further changes that will limit severely the exchanges between users:

1 - There will be no white space below the photo for description, comments or invitations to groups

2 - Difficult to write a comment that contains more than 3 words

3 - We can not see who supports our pics

4 - We can not see in which groups the photo appears

5 - The images of the award will not be visible

6 - The visits will no longer be visible. The latter will only appear in Recent Activity, others will be lost.

7 - For Admin it will become impossible to manage groups so many will close.

8 - Our descriptions, including quotes, links to YouTube or other sites will be hidden

( translated from Italian )

Changes should not delete/destroy/ruin the very factors which caused us to join flickr in the first place ...

Example of page showing how the Beta Flickr shall be.... in first comment.

********************************************************************** **************

"Yahoo has new ideas. flickr is offering 1 TB free space for all accounts. Those who want to be rid of advertisements have to pay.

I appeal you all those who plan to quit, to change your mind and stay. You can make use of your accounts just for storage. Make your accounts private, make this image public and use flickr for storage. You can save on external hard disks.

If we check in to a hotel room seeing it's features, should we bear it without a word of protest if they take away the furniture one by one including the bed ? flickr should know that the people who protest are not against 'changes'.

Changes shouldn't steal away the utilities that made people choose flickr.

Protest ! flickr is not just the property of few people who get paid to serve the people that make it. If they offer 1 TB free space for every account, the salaried people who planned it have advertisements in mind. Many unique special utilities made people like you and me join flickr, and flickr is taking away all what that made us choose it. Now the only special thing in flickr is 1 TB free storage. Let's then make use of it, without caring about flickr's revenue. We can seek better places for what we like, still keep this place for storage. If the 'hotel' stinks and cheated us, make it your warehouse or sty. If this is forced on us, you can make your account private, store everything here; display , share and comment elsewhere.

Thank you.

Anuj Nair"

Users of the English version of Flickr may have got the botton " try our new experience Beta"

This is an incredible regression .....once again

No longer any white space underneath pictures for comments, description, invitations etc....

Everything is gathered in a tiny sidebar to the right of the photo in the Lightbox

All features that allow interaction and sharing have gone so groups might also disappear ......

You may take a look here

yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/224533-flickr-photo-page-beta

If you want to save the groups from a certain death, Please click this blue link and go to vote

yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/224533-flickr-photo-page-beta/...

We had got used (more or less) the first changes, but this time, it is a

total scuttling of Flickr and of its spirit of sharing :(

We can't see who faved our pictures

We can't see the groups the pictures appear in ( except only 8)

Awards images. are not shown

Invitations are not visible except for the last ones (only in "Recent Activity").They're lost.

For admins group management will become a work more and more difficult or even impossible

Groups might close......and groups add visibility to our pictures

Our descriptions including quotes or links to YouTube or other sites are hidden

NO LONGER ANY CONVIVIALITY.. ANY VISIBILITY . NO SENSE

*I specify for those who haven't seen the Beta page;that there is NO

white area under the pictures for descriptions / comments / invitations /

flickr Award Counter

Only a narrow sidebar to the right of the image ,showing ONLY the last 4 comments

White print on a black and depressive background, that hurts the eyes

Unfortunately everything we can do is absolutely useless ....

Unfortunately it is obvious that Yahoo wants to turn Flickr into another social network for teens and young using only tablets and smartphones and whose only interaction is Hi or Lol

Motivated photographers using computers and large screens are no longer interesting users.... ( nor groups since our invitations are only visible on our "Recent Activity "Page....The oldest are lost ....)

How many people know what represents the Beta Page ?? I wonder ?

Only some users of the English version of Flickr ..... but not all of them

All this is very discouraging

T H A N K Y O U !!!!!!!!!

*******************************************************

Did you know that flickr has been testing a new beta version of flickr?

I haven't actually seen the beta page but I've had it described to me:

"...there is NO white area under the pictures for descriptions / comments / invitations / flickr Award Counter

Only a narrow sidebar to the right of the image ,showing ONLY the last 4 comments

White print on a black and depressive background, that hurts the eyes

No sense. Hard to write comments exceeding 2 or 3 words

We can't see who faved our pictures

We can't see the groups the pictures appear in ( except only 8 )

Awards images. are not shown in comments : which means that neither members nor admins can check

Admin-Invitations are not displayed ( the last ones are visible ONLY in "Recent Activity").The oldest are lost

For admins , group management will become a work more and more difficult or even impossible

Some groups might close......and groups add visibility to our pictures

They allow us to admire beautiful works and to meet with great photographers.

Our descriptions including quotes or links to YouTube or other sites are hidden

NO LONGER ANY CONVIVIALITY.. ANY VISIBILITY . NO SENSE

In fact this layout specifically targets tablets and smartphones"

This Sunday December 8 2013 is FLICKR BLACK DAY in order to protest against the upcoming change that will soon be implemented.

If you wish to join the protest against this new Flickr layout you may download this image.

_Feedback

Unfortunately everything we can do seems absolutely useless ....

Yahoo and Flickr don't care

Unfortunately it is obvious that Yahoo wants to turn Flickr into another social network for people (mainly teens and young ) using only tablets and smartphones and whose only interaction is Hi or Lol

Motivated photographers still using computers (with photo-softwares) and large screens are no longer desirable customers....

( nor groups since our invitations are only visible on our "Recent Activity "Page....The oldest are lost ....and everything is done to impede their functioning)

Advertising is much much more lucrative than our Pro accounts .......

How many people know what represents the Beta Page ?? I wonder ?

Only some users of the English version of Flickr ..... but not all of them

Users of any other language have not been informed.... amazing No ??

All this is very discouraging

A big special Thank You to Marissa Mayer

Bravo ..You will be be erected a Big / Great / Magnificent / Majestic statue on the ruins of Flickr .... Well deserved
