Goodbye photobucket....... Hello flickr!

[Stradawhovious]

Just switched from Photobucket to Flickr. Lots of differences between the two, but the most noticeable is image quality. Photobucket makes it look like my screen has a thin film of vasiline in it whenever I'm looking at my pics. Flickr actually comes very close to the original IQ of my photos when I upload them.

Very happy with the switch (even though it was very recent), and recommend it to anyone still on Photobucket.

There are other perks as well, such as a seemingly bigger community of actual photographers, easier uploading and organizing etc...... but the IQ is the biggie for me.

Just thought id share.

Yes.

 

[Stradawhovious]

Yes.

Thank you, magic 8 ball!

I use both.

I much prefer the more professional look of Photobucket.

Flickr looks to me like a social networking site that was put together by some high school kid that got a C- on the project. :er:

Not all browsers are color aware, and other people looking at your images may be using old, antiquated, mal-adjusted displays so it makes little difference.

Can you generate codes for more than 1 image on flickr? I dont think so. If it can, I will switch.

KmH are you mad?
Schwetty - what do you mean by generate codes?

Though I will agree some parts of flickrs community side need a bit of improvement (thread tracking for a start)

also welcome to flickr - its a great place - now pay your darn annual subscription fee ;P

i can use photobucket to post like multiple images with BB codes. I dont have to paste it one by one.
