More informations about this product

Description

Flickr is an online application for storing, organizing, sharing, and discussing photos and videos. A Flickr pro account allows unlimited storage, photos up to 20 MB in size, videos up to 90 seconds long, organization into any number of sets and collections of sets, and submission into the pools of up to 60 Flickr groups.

Flickr members can do the following things with photos and videos:

  • Upload: Photos and videos can be uploaded singly or in batches in several ways: through a web-based tool, through a free downloadable application that runs on the member's computer, through several third-party tools, or via email, including email from camera phones.
  • Organize: Photos and videos can be grouped into sets and sets into collections. They can be assigned tags for easy searching.
  • Share: Photos and videos can be made public, private, or visible only to certain people. They can be posted to groups organized around a common theme.
  • Keep in touch: Members can designate other members as contacts, friends, and family and keep up to date with them through their recent activity pages or by email subscription. They can also have conversations about each other's photos through notes and comments.

Here are some notable features of this product:

  • The integrated Picnik photo editing tools let Flickr members edit their photos on the Flickr site, including such operations as cropping, rotation, color correction, and special effects.
  • Photos can be emailed from camera phones with email capability. Certain Nokia phones allow direct uploading.
  • Users can send their Flickr photos to various third-party services and, for a charge, have them made into such items as calling cards, calendars, framed prints, and postage stamps.
  • Users can geotag their photos by placing markers on world maps to show where photos were taken and can also use the maps to find photos taken in places of interest to them.
  • Photos are fully copyrighted by default, but members can also choose six other types of less restrictive licenses offered by the nonprofit Creative Commons.

This donation is for five 1-year Flickr pro accounts. Organizations may assign these accounts to any individual over 18 years of age. The account remains assigned to the individuals even if they leave the organization. After one year, the pro account reverts to a free account unless it is renewed. Free accounts have limits on use that are not present in pro accounts.

When your request is approved, you will receive an email with five license codes and instructions on how to redeem them on Flickr.
