I won't argue about the suckiness of their interface, but I'm not getting 
coarsely pixelated images when I look at anything on Flickr.

Re: OT: iPhone photo (was: Save me from my desire...)

2014-03-06 Thread Bruce Walker
A bunch of Flickr does indeed suck; badly. But for much of my needs
it sucks less than anything else I've encountered, especially for the
price. And some of the suckage can be contained by front-ending it
with Flickriver which I usually remember to do.

Your pixelated fail is the first I've heard of that particular issue.
Most people just run into the Unexpected Ken Burns Annoyance. I
wonder if you've got some stale browser cookies that need to be
expunged?

Just for testing, does this Flickr image (Kat) viewed via Flickriver
look okay to you?

Thanks!

I only get a low-res pic while the high-res one is loading.  The aspect ratio 
is all messed up during that time as well.

Can't say I'm fond of Flickr but I still prefer it over photo.net.

Have you tried a BW rendition?

I think in colour 99.99% of the time, but I'm pretty sure
you could get quite a good BW image from this shot.
