That is a good point. I haven't tried the flickr phone app since I got so frustrated with photobuckets last million times .. :lol:
I'm going to have to try it.

I think moving the pictures over to flickr is well worth it if you're willing to put in the time depending on the amount :thumbs: .
What I did... when I made the switch was just keep my photobucket pics where they are currently at ... access them on PB when needed ... and just started uploading to Flickr my current pics then kept running from there !
I probably should've/should finish transferring my picture stash over looking back , but too lazy to be honest (quite a few there).
If PB gets radical or changes for the worse I will go back to save/pull/transfer my pics over...
I will say I don't like going back to photobucket to retrieve a pic when needed :rofl: .

Hey whatever works though ya know ? :thumbs:

Did the same to me after this last update. I think I 'm gonna try the flickr app and see. I am never on the net unless its on my phone so it would be a bitch probably to transfer it all over to flickr. Also the link may be broken and you'd have to repost all the previous pics that you've posted. Unless you leave them and just copy the pic to flickr. Fuck I'm too lazy to do that.
