Yahoo announced a major upgrade of photo-sharing site
Flickr. New Flickr, according to the company, the solution corresponding to the
21st century, with a new design, new pricing and a new Android-app to work on
smartphones and tablets.
Flickr completely updated the look by changing the small
icons with the metadata for full-size image, as well as the possibility of
obtaining additional information about the photographs. However, the mode of
Flickr Lightbox, when the frame around the image is removed and the image is
shown on a bigger level, remained.
On the title page of the updated service, as before, are
displayed the most interesting (in the opinion of the moderators), photographs,
and personal section on page shows pictures of friends. Among other things, the
updated Flickr mode appeared Explore, which is designed for directory browsing
photos. The new version of Yahoo added updated features for collections and
sorting.
At the same time the company introduced a new pricing model
and project work. The old models were two areas: free and Pro. The first was
limited to paltry 300 MB and two videos per month. For $ 25 a year you can get
an unlimited number of photos and videos in a month, and work without
advertising.
The new version of Flickr is much more liberal free
accounts: users get 1TB of space and can upload an unlimited number of photos
and videos (videos are limited to 3 minutes and the quality of 1080p). Two paid
accounts: for $ 50 a year, the company does not change anything, but removes
the ads and for $ 500 per year increases the space of up to 2 terabytes.
