Alan B Photography says: Good evening. Feed — Subscribe to help discussion threads. Latest: 3 hours ago. SmugMug originally announced that on February 5, , the company will delete all images and media on free accounts after the 1, newest photos and movies.
The new deadline is now March 12, SmugMug currently offers a 30 percent discount on the Pro account. Some Pro users may opt to leave completely, as the price for the paid tier has doubled under SmugMug.
The new owner has upgraded Pro offerings , however: it includes unlimited storage and the company has released additional improvements and a timeline for a number more—including far better video support.
Flickr updated that in the last year to offer a complete export. It also retains the original metadata of the image you uploaded, including GPS coordinates, which is also the case with the older Flickr export method.
Downloading your Flickr data can take some time. For me, with 13, photos, it took four days. However, I made the request right after the announcement of changes to free and Pro tiers, so it could be faster now. Photos and Videos is just that: ZIP archives of all your images and movies, with names derived from how Flickr stored them. I have my own simpler way of copying protected Flickr images. I only use the copied images as wallpaper on my computer at work.
I enjoy the image for a few weeks and then I seek out another. I also save them in a folder in case I ever want to purchase the image for a large print for my collection. My method is simple: I find the image I like on Flickr and copy the tag words used into a Google image search; the image I want is typically within the first few results then I select the image and Google shows me the picture in their preview screen where I then right click and hit save as.
If that happens, I just find another image I like and try again. It typically works within a couple tries but it does take some patience to find an image that works. Your posts make a lot of sense and I enjoyed reading them. Photographers need to realize that the Internet is a blessing and a curse- your images reach people in every corner of the world but some of those people will steal your work.
Thanks so much. The instructions you posted and the comments made it simple to save what Flickr tried to make difficult. The technique I use works perfectly in firefox for any site — I use it at Pbase aswell. I right click anywhere on the page and click view page info, switch over to the Media tab, and skim through the list for the link that ends in. Think what you want about people who post pictures, scrape pictures, etc. I do some events and the organisers use Flickr for photos,I usually can find some but never seem to be able to actually get them though we are told they are free.
The instructions above are pretty clear. On the other hand, if you are using these photos for presentations, you better be very sure they are indeed Creative Commons or free for distribution. Downloading pictures for your private use is pretty much at your own discretion despite the intimidating and desperate cries of authority freaks like Jim above.
Or inclusion of said photos in an article about the photos themselves as illustration is also fair use. Try this command:. Thanks so much for the solution. What you say is exactly right. Will download you a nice picture of a section of the Bayeux Tapestry. Without that, you will just get the picture in your browser. They are up-front about this. The key to the copyright is to NOT use it inappropriately. Where photogs have a legitimate complaint about this is when they start seeing their work on other websites without attribution or remuneration.
In my experience though the only people who have to worry about this is people who take pictures of women. Love your comment about if you want something to be private then do not put them up on the internet… Now I can have all the ferrari photos I want!!!
Please be sure to at least properly credit the people whose photos you are republishing. I do not have google chrome, I have internet explorer 8.
How can this be done using that web browser? I ask you instead of endlessly trolling google because you seem competent, knowledgable and able to withstand bad spelling, criticism and some hysteria over copyrighting ;p. And yes I am one of those people who download pics for reference in future renovation and home decor ideas with the web addy so I can buy the quality image later.
Silver lining on the cloud. If anyone knows how to apply this technique in IE8, please let us know. Thank you for taking your time to help us. I bet most of their images are sucks as their sad life. Any smart photographer would be aware of internet threats before post their work online.
And you must be too dumb to post full size image on flickr. Enough said. Go Internet Trolls go away.. Just because somebody publishes a website featuring their photographs, does not give anyone a license to steal.
I have no problem with somebody downloading my images for personal, non-commercial use. A lot of unscrupulous people out there. With overlays, watermarks unless they are very discreet , the only person whose work you damage is your own by damaging the enjoyment of the end user. Anyone who uses your images commercially without permission makes himself or herself eligible to be sued. The thugs at Getty Images are even making a big business of it, buying up Creative Commons portfolios and then beginning to sue based on an after the fact license change.
You can also right click on the image. Go to inspect Element. Go to the url and the picture should pop up, this time unprotected by any code. Now you can right click and save. Also I apologise for not pointing out other people who suggested the same as Shey. I find this to be an extremely selfish and shortsided point of view. For example, take a look at this Flickr pool flickr.
As far as I can tell, this is the only resource for these images online of this scope. This is the same selfish mentality that museums employ when they limit the ability to take non-flash photography of public domain works and greedily control the use of said images because they own the physical original. I agree with Alec that a photographer should be flattered if people find their work beautiful enough an use it with proper credits.
What none of the whiners here seem technologically astute to bring up is that any time you look at a photograph on a webpage you are already downloading the image. But hey, if I want to share my photos in a limited way, I must accept that there are people like you happy to use my images in any way you want. This is not like Napster or other file sharing.
Flickr users are real people who generally have a love of photography. Many would be happy to share a full-res image with you if you expressed appreciation for the work. Simply downloading images like a commodity is easier for you, but shows no respect for the photographer.
If you are unwilling to ask for the copyrighted image, maybe meet the photographer half way. Go ahead and download her photo, but at least write a nice comment. The tonal range is striking and the bokeh is as smooth as butter. To be honest, I think talented photographers would get really tired of constant requests from people wanting to save their images.
On the other hand, photo dweebs with little skill or vision would appreciate these very infrequent emails. On top of that most websites are ephemeral especially specific URLs so if I want to see the image in two years maybe someone is working on a long term project on ceremonial decorations for example , I better have saved it to my own hard drive.
OR … open userContent. Oh man, this is genious!!! Why do people try protecting photos on flicker. I mean what is the point of allowing pictures to be seen but not downloaded. I am actually honored if someone wants my photos. Simple solutions for downloading protected images is just by using pdfcreator means of printing and saving, then take a snapshot into particular size of images and paste it into image editor and save it you want.
