			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/flickr_file_synchronization_software.png" alt="flickr file synchronization software" title="flickr file synchronization software" width="127" height="65" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-12735" />Third party software programs that require login credentials to work are often the cause for security concerns. No one likes to hand out username and password to important accounts. That&#8217;s why official software programs are most of the time the better solution for users who want to use software to access web services. Flickr for instance offers access to an official tool to upload photos to the photo hosting service.</p>
<p>Flickr Uploadr is a computer program that is available for Windows and Mac users. It can be used to easily upload multiple photos from the local computer system to the popular photo hosting website Flickr. The photo uploader offers a clean interface. Photos can be added from the build in file browser or by dragging and dropping them into the interface.</p>
<p><span id="more-15484"></span><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/flickr1-500x364.jpg" alt="flickr" title="flickr" width="500" height="364" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-15485" /></p>
<p>Flickr Uploadr will automatically display thumbnails of each photo that has been loaded into the software. A click on a photo will display various tags in the right sidebar. It is for example possible to change the title, description, tags or safety level of the photos. Other options include hiding the selected photos from public areas at Flickr and defining which user group is allowed to see the photo.</p>
<p>One interesting option is the ability to selected multiple photos at once so that information can be changed for all of them at once.</p>
<p>Flickr Uploadr requires permissions and a logged in user to work. The program will automatically open the Flickr website and display an authorization prompt for the software after login. The program needs to be authorized only once. for every Flickr account.</p>
<p>Flickr Uploadr will display the disk space for the remaining month and the full size of all photos that have been added to the photo uploader software.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/flickr_photo-500x364.jpg" alt="flickr photo" title="flickr photo" width="500" height="364" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-15486" /></p>
<p>A final click on Upload will initiate the transfer of the photos to the Flickr account.</p>
<p>Flickr Uploadr is <a href="http://www.flickr.com/tools/uploadr/">compatible</a> with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Mac OSX 10.4 and 10.5.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/flickr_file_synchronization_software.png" alt="flickr file synchronization software" title="flickr file synchronization software" width="127" height="65" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-12735" />Flickr Downloadr was reviewed back in March here at Ghacks. Back then we liked the simplicity of the tool but disliked the fact that it would only run on Windows Vista or <a href="http://windows7news.com/">Windows 7</a>. The developers have been hard at work to increase application compatibility. The result is a new version of the Flickr downloader that supports the popular Windows XP operating system as well.</p>
<p>The software program itself has not changed a lot though. The software developer has improved the algorithms in the background but not the user interface. The program displays the three buttons Search, User and Group to the user upon startup. All can be used to download photos from specific Flickr sections. </p>
<p><span id="more-15086"></span>The first option (Search) performs a Flickr search for either a keyword or tag, the second (user) will display photos uploaded by a specific Flickr user while the third (group) will do the same for a Flickr group.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/flickr_download-500x343.jpg" alt="flickr download" title="flickr download" width="500" height="343" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-15087" /></p>
<p>The photo preview page will display thumbnails of the photos that have been found in the Flickr search. Only five thumbnails will be displayed by default. This figure can be increased to a maximum of 500 thumbnails per page. Copyrighted images are displayed with a huge copyright watermark. These photos will not be downloaded by the program. A Creative Commons checkbox is available to only display photos that have been tagged with it.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/flickr.jpg" alt="flickr" title="flickr" width="500" height="343" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-15088" /></p>
<p><a href="http://flickrdownloadr.codeplex.com/">Flickr Downloadr</a> will then download all photos (even if the count exceed 100K) that are not copyright protected. The software program works fine and seems to be more reliable in this version.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/flickr_file_synchronization_software.png" alt="flickr file synchronization software" title="flickr file synchronization software" width="127" height="65" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-12735" />FlickrSync is an Open Source file synchronization software that synchronizes photos with the popular photo hosting site Flickr. It has to be authorized for communication with Flickr on first run on the Flickr homepage but runs independently from the photo hosting site afterwards. The interface consists of a basic folder browser which can be used to select folders to be synchronized with Flickr. The selection of a folder will open a properties dialog that contains several configuration options for the synchronization.</p>
<p><span id="more-12737"></span>This includes a title and description for that folder on Flickr, permission settings (public, private, only friends, only family, friends and family), a matching method (what to do if images already exist on Flickr), order and filters. A click on the View and Sync all button will process all folders that have been selected for synchronization and display new images in a preview window. A click on the sync button in the preview window will start the file synchronization process that transfers the files to Flickr.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/file_synchronization_software-500x304.jpg" alt="file synchronization software" title="file synchronization software" width="500" height="304" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-12736" /></p>
<p>It is also possible to right-click a folder and synchronize its contents (and the contents of its subfolder if selected).</p>
<p>FlickrSync can be run automatically from the command line after the first configuration. This process requires no user interaction which makes it a great way to synchronize photos with Flickr on a regular basis, e.g. during system startup or after moving photos from a digital camera to the computer system.</p>
<p>The file synchronization software <a href="http://flickrsync.freehostia.com/index.htm">FlickrSync</a> supports all Flickr image formats. It is compatible with computer systems running Windows XP or later Microsoft operating systems.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Flickr is already offering an official tool to upload images to the image hoster. The software is supporting several operating systems and another tool made by a third party has to add features that the official uploader is not supporting to have any chance to being recognized at all.</p>
<p>Vista Flickr <a href="http://www.codeplex.com/VistaFlickrUploader">Uploader</a> is a specifically designed Flickr image uploader for Windows Vista. It makes use of the Extensible Metadata Platform support of Windows Vista. The downside is that XMP is not supported yet by Flickr which means that the only distinguishable feature that the application is offering is not supported by Flickr.</p>
<p>It will however be interesting if Flickr is adding support for XMP in the future. Other than that the Vista Flickr Uploader is supporting the usual features of an uploader.</p>
<p><span id="more-5739"></span><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/vista_flickr_uploader-500x359.png" alt="vista flickr uploader" title="vista flickr uploader" width="500" height="359" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-5740" /></p>
<p>Several images can be selected and uploaded at once. Each image is shown as a thumbnail in the program window. Permissions can be set so that only a certain group can access the pictures and it is possible to select one of the existing sets to add the images to it.</p>
