and are now calling it "Ad Free." However, if I'm reading it correctly, if you have a pro account currently, it gets grandfathered in. So, as long as I continue to renew my account, I'll continue to receive unlimited space.

I’ve heard that Flickr Pro is no longer being offered. How does that affect me?

Starting on 5/20/2013, we will no longer be offering new Flickr Pro subscriptions. After that point, the following things will happen:

• Recurring Pro users currently have the ability to renew.
• Eligible Pro members have the option to switch to a Free account until 8/20/2013.
• The “Gift of Pro” will no longer be available for purchase.
• Pro users will no longer appear with a “Pro” badge beside their name or buddy icon.

What happens if my Pro Account expires?

Since May 20, 2013, Pro accounts can no longer be purchased. You can enjoy unlimited storage as long as your Pro account is active. If your Pro account expires, it will revert to a free account with a storage limit of 1 Terabyte.

If you need more storage or would like to go ad-free, you can upgrade your account to one of our paid account types.


If that's the case, and as a pro user I get unlimited space, I can see paying $50 a year for unlimited storage--it's cheaper than anything I've come across yet.

I had some nice albums there, organized and all. Then they took it all over to their damned $#%^ Smile. It has made me distrustful of posting photos of photography sites now.
