Flickr has redesigned their slideshow photo feature at the request of their users, and now you can view all of your favorite photos in a larger size versus the reduced size that they previously offered.

If you have a Flickr account set up, or maybe there’s an account owned by someone else that’s filled with pictures that you enjoy, you can put those photos to good use.A program called Flickr Desktop Wallpaper will select images randomly from a Flickr account of your choice and turn them into a pattern of tiled images.

Today begins the day that Yahoo will be closing down Yahoo Photos, a process that will occur over several months.  When Yahoo photos originally started, Flickr hadn’t yet been acquired.  It seems like at this point, there really isn’t a need for Yahoo to maintain two photo services.

We’ve covered online photo editing options before like Fauxto (the online Photoshop clone), Phixr, and Snipshot. While all of them proved easy and convenient to use, another service called Picnik just became number one on my list.

I signed up for a Flickr Pro account the day that they announced the new Collections feature. I keep all of my photos organized in a nice hierarchical structure that is difficult or impossible to replicate using only tags. Once Flickr implemented the feature, I knew that it was exactly what I was waiting for.

Gallery 2.2 is now available to the public and it offers some new features that are sure to be a crowd pleaser. The software is used to host your own photo galleries on your own site instead of using a service like Flickr.

At the end of January Flickr sent out emails to all of their users saying that they had until March 15th, 2007 to setup a Yahoo! account that would be used to manage the Flickr service. This caused quite an uproar in the blog community as well as all over the web.

The default wallpapers that come with Window’s Vista are without a doubt some of the best that have ever been offered with an operating system. And what’s more amazing is that a portion of them came from amateur photographers.

It was just the beginning of January that Yahoo acquired MyBlogLog for an estimated 10-12 million. We were wondering how long it would take Yahoo to  integrate some of their other acquired services like Flickr. Well, that question has been answered because Flickr has been integrated into MyBlogLog.
