Option To Go Back To Previous Style
You keep making changes that get worse and once we get used to the new change you make another. The new recent activity is horrible and not user friendly. It was nice to have the notifications and newly uploaded pics in one spot now i have to go into another area to look at notifications. In the old design it was easy to like we didn't even have to click on the image to like it and there were thumbnail views of multiple uploaded pics we could choose to look at IF we wanted to, this is just a bunch…

Request to Flickr: set the default for "Downloading" and "Share" to DISabled
At this moment "downloading" on the All Sizes page is by default set to *enabled* (from our Settings: *anyone*)
This is also the case for the Share feature in our Settings.In my opinion this gives the wrong message; the interpretation that "free to download" equals "Free to use" is an easy step.
Same with Sharing: why would you be allowed to slap an image just anywhere you like, without taking into consideration that the photographer may not endorse that particular blog or site ?Flickr could be an innovator, curbing this if-it's-on-the-net-it-is-free-to-take mentality by turning the default around: no,…

Provide a way to remove GROUPS from my Flickr Feed
The new Flickr Feed page is TERRIBLE. I don't want to keep up the random posts to a ton of groups. I do want to keep up with a very SELECT group of PEOPLE I follow--there's a big difference between the two. The developers can go off on their merry tangents, just give us a way to arrange things the way WE like. Seem's fair enough to me!

Create a Group Founder Category For All Groups
This has been brought up, discussed, and requested repeatedly over the last decade, yet Flickr has done absolutely nothing to fix the situation and address the issues with rogue administrators that at some point just take over a group and will not cooperate with any of the other admins who are trying to keep the group on track with its intended purpose!
As a group founder you may or may not have experienced this issue as of yet, but if you have granted admin privileges or intend to grant admin privileges to any member of your group, be forewarned that…

Present great Flickr Groups in the Weekly Flickr
There are some awesome groups in Flickr that do more than just collecting photographs. It would be great to present some of these groups in the Weekly Flickr blog.
I'm part of the admin team of Flickr's 100 Best (https://flic.kr/g/dhB69L). It is the Hunger Game of Flickr and has a limited pool of 100 awesome photographs of all kind. Over 10'000 members challenge the actual pool photographs to get theirs in. Our group is highly active with over 50 challenges a month.
Besides the fun aspect, members get a serious and constructive critique in our group and fantastic…13th ranked -
Too many clicks to see photo details
When you click a photo there should be a way to see the details. With the current change you need to click the photo and then click the photographer to get to their stream, then re-click the photo you were just looking at to see the details. Suggest adding an icon (i) maybe, on the banner at the bottom where you click favorite, forward etc. so you can jump directly to the narrative and EXIF, location etc.

why isn't flickr smart enough to upload multiple files taken on multiple dates in multiple folders ? if my camera is smart enough to organize it why isn't flickr? I should be able to upload as many as I want, all at once.

Photo travel planning
Hi Flickr Team! This is an idea how to improve the Flickr service and to create value add for people / photographers planning a photo trip: In addition to text comments and faves there should be another button which adds selected geo tagged images automatically to a map ( e.g. from Here) . After having finished adding several images to this background map the result is a gpx trail with all the individual selected images in addition. So it will be easy to plan a furture trip to the same locations other FLickr users have been before. Such a feature…

Log In Using Flickr Username Only
I think it would be lovely if we could log in to our Flickr accounts by putting in our username and password only. No email is required, because sometimes people forget which email they put down, but people tend to remember their usernames. Nobody can have the same username as anyone else, so why not make life easier for everybody? Yeah? I'm down with it, at least (:
(please do this. please.)

NEW — Notification Center Here, you'll fi... QUIT THIS Annoying pop-up please!!
PLEEEEASE QUIT THIS ANNOYING POP-UP ON THE LAPTOP. The tablet and phone don't have it so it is possible. Can I please use Flickr on the laptop again without this message popping up again and again and again? Please. It's almost unworkable like this.
NEW — Notification Center
Here, you'll find notifications of your recent activity on Flickr. This includes easy access to FlickrMail. We think you'll enjoy what we've built so far.

What does it mean that an idea is in REVIEWED status?
What does it mean here on Uservoice that an idea is in REVIEWED status? It no longer accepts votes, it is not listed as declined/rejected, there is no note from Yahoo/Flickr staff. What are people who supported or want to support this idea to make of it? Is it getting implemented or not? Thank you!
