Lewies Blog

I’m a happy camper. I’ve been using Flickr for a while now. Flickr is a nice service that lets me store and manage photos online. I get to assign titles, descriptions, and also tag my images. Also, people can leave comments for my images.

I just got a very surprising email. Read on …

Hi lewismoten!

You may have heard on the grapevine that we planned to reward our dear Flickr members who bought a Pro Account in the early days. Well, it’s true! And since you’re one of those lovely people, here’s a little something to say YOU ROCK!

1. Double what you paid for!

   Your original 1 year pro account has been doubled to 2 years, and your new expiry date is Dec 26, 2006.

2. More capacity!

   Now you can upload 2 GB per month.

3. 2 free Pro Accounts to give away to your friends!

   This won’t be activated for a day or two, but when it is, you’ll see a note on your home page telling you what to do.

Thank you so much for putting your money where your mouth is and supporting us, even while we’re in beta. Your generosity and cold, hard cash helped us get where we are today.

Kind regards,
The Flickreenies.

PS - You can check out your account history here:

This is just so cool. I’m so happy with these guys. I keep getting surprised (in a good way) every now and then with what they are all about and the features they offer.
