There's also Adblock:

The way I see it by GustavoG


..and there's a GM script for replacing it with ludicorp's logo:
Flickr: Discussing From Yahoo??!! in FlickrCentral by Rev Dan Catt


All these, of course, affect only the person who installed/adblocked. All others still see the ugliness decorating the top of your flickr pages.

Rev Dan Catt  Pro User  says:

Yup it's 4 pixels higher, which for some reason bothers me more than the "from Yahoo!" bit.

philipp daun says:

and the replacement here is an additional 18px higher.

does anyone happen to know where to lay hands on the original logo?

AraiGodai  Pro User  says:

hi, i found the screen capture of the recent flickr logo before the changes.

i capture the logo with context of the main links, so you can put in the right white space when it is replaced. i think the white space that matter is between the logo and the link. if it leaves a bigger white gab on top, no big deal.

This script made the Flickr logo larger than the "with Yahoo" addition... Surely, the script could link to a smaller logo...?

Saint.Seminole: You can make the logo any size you want. Just update:

result.width = "162";
result.height = "64";

aspherical element: Nice script!

Thanks!

I just shaved half off each number... Now mine says:

result.width = "81";
result.height = "32";

And it looks just fine. Again, I appreciate the help. :-)

I joined this group just now because a flickr friend (no names mentioned for privacy purposes) likes it and it's very interesting. I was wondering why they added the from Yahoo! extention. At first sight I thought it was an advertisement speck like MySpace put in our photoalbum page years ago to promote Spiderman. Then I thought spy/tracer gremlin icon kinda like Softdana does. Big difference between Yahoo and Google is Yahoo doesn't sell you out with advertisers, like the "MySpace Get Rich Quick Work-at-Home" one that mentions MySpace throughout the ad but at the bottom in the disclaimer it admits it has no association to MySpace yet MySpace still advertised it. And Yahoo gives you the privacy and unsearchable options so it's much harder for spies to find you in search engine/e-mail tracer/IP trail hunter services out there

Nope I just installed it and the yahoo bit went away as soon as I refreshed the page.

gramarye  Pro User  says:

we all know that Yahoo owns Flickr so it was only a matter of time til they branded it - there is not much point in burying your head and pretending it's not there (via GM scripts)
get over it and go take pictures, people, that's the real reason we are all here.

hey and if you use the truetype font "frutiger-75 black" and the colours #ff0084 and #0063dc, you can fake any flickr looking logo you want :) the old logo i once had downloaded measured 111x30px.

Zoolcar9 says:

The best method to change the logo is using Stylish instead of Greasemonkey, because you won't see any flickr ...errr.... flicker (old logo appears first before suddenly changed)
And it's easy to enable/disable it without reloading the page

Just install this userstyle at userstyles.org/styles/23442

I don't like "Flicker by Yahoo" either, because Flicker is the only good part of Yahoo to my mind, but the script does not work on my PC with Firefox 3.6. As it happened with another Greasemonkey script, I'm wondering whether it is caused by a version incompatibility or a problem with the French Flickr interface.
