I also cannot fave other members' photos and videos of those who are not blocking me either. Cache clearing doesn't work, and I cannot use any browser other than Firefox (laptop also has Windows Internet Explorer 8, but isn't used at home except when desktop is having problems).
Edit - Just to let the admins know, my desktop is using Windows XP Service Pack 2 and Firefox 3.6.3. Laptop is Windows 7 with Windows IE 8 and Firefox 3.6.2. I only use Firefox in all cases.

If tomorrow morning I cannot fave with Firefox 3.6.3, I will likely do what Arty Smokes is doing right now and download the latest version of Firefox.
EDIT - I just found a way that I was able to finally add a photo posted by one of my contacts to my Favorites: Open the photo I wanted to fave in the Lightbox screen, then click on the star beside Favorites until it turned pink, go back to how you would see the photo when first loaded to Flickr, do a browser cache clearing, and voila! It will show a photo added to my Favorites - and also show for Favorites with Comments below. Not going to use the photo page that Flickr started with to fave photos.

@Kevin:
Firefox 3.6.6, safe mode, still gets the same Unresponsive Script dialog: This in Vista.
A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Script: l.yimg.com/g/combo.gne?oop/oop-min.js&dom/dom-min.js&...
If I might make a suggestion: if the developers can reproduce the error I've also reported using "Zoom Text Only" (in 3.5.10, XP, in my case, but the page seems to work OK there without "zoom text only" on) --that would be where I would start debugging, if I were them. I'll bet it's related.
Of course, if they can't reproduce it even then... I have a lot of sympathy. It's usually Safari that makes my life miserable with that kind of bug.

As I expected, blocking yahooapis.com with NoScript stops the script hanging bug from happening, in a completely predictable manner. Obviously the problem scripts are serving from there. But you know that.
I would leave yahooapis blocked, though of course then the page loses most of its other functionality. You know that too.

Disappearing html code
I have another bug, can't really get a screenshot of it but when I click to edit a comment or a tag I made with any sort of sort of html code or html link the html disappears when the comment or tag changes to the edit view, leaving only the text that was outside of the brackets.
For example in a photo description I would have:
Built in: 2002
Manufacturer: GILLIG
Model: Low Floor 40'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Seen here on route 121 at Coffman Union.
then if I click on the description to edit it this is all that appears:
2002
GILLIG
Low Floor 40'
----------------------------------------------------------------
Seen here on route 121 at Coffman Union.
If I click cancel it leaves the description as it was, but if I change anything I have to retype all of the html again.
My web browser is Safari version 4.0.4 and I don't use any sort of extensions.
Please look into this! Thanks :-)

CONTACTS PAGE: is there any way to make the photostream of the chosen contact to open as a filmstrip rather than that of my contacts page when I start navigating from there? It's irritating not to see at the first glance if my contact has uploaded more than one new images - and it costs extra time to click the proper filmstrip open.
Formerly, two filmstrips could show at the same time what I liked much. I guess that feature is incompatible with the new lightbox - too bad!

Some unexpected map behaviour.
I looked at an example map another user gave in the map thread. When I came to geotag a pic today using Organizer the map has now defaulted to the location of this other user's pic (Hamburg).
I can't say for sure this never happened before, but surely it's only desirable to save the last location you used when positioning your own photos, rather than random photos you may have looked at.

i have descriptions that contain links (<a href="..."> etc).
all that completely disappears when i edit an existing description that has some links. i.e. not only the link HTML code disappears but the anchor-text disappears too!
this makes it completely impossible to edit descriptions that contain links.

had a quick search but couldn't find this raised anywhere. when clicking the 'want to format your reply?' link under the comment box it opens a new window with the various formatting listed. it used to just stay on the same page and kinda roll open underneath the comment box (the dinky little arrow on the lhs of the link missing too). i checked and this only happens when using the new page preview with chrome. is this a problem at my end?
(windows 7, chrome 5.0.375.70, no extensions running)
edit: forgot to say this only happens in group discussion comment boxes, the photopage comment box still fine.

I don't know if you consider this a bug, but for me, as the whole page doesn't display properly it reads as a bug.
technical stuff:
I'm browsing in the latest Firefox, on Windows XP, with 1024x768 resolution (I can't make it higher as my monitor is kind of small).
the bugs:
- when browsing the photo page it doesn't fit horizontally, leaving a horizontal scroll, which is very annoying.
- the pictures, text, titles, comments, etc. are "glued" to the left screen border, with no margin at all. for the pictures it's kind of OK, but it's really unpleasant for the text.
thanks

Not sure if this has been discussed and there are now 7 pages of comments to read. I did a search but did not see the topic.
When I receive a group invite on one of my photos I am getting two invites and two buttons to add my photo to a group. One which comes from the individual which invited the photo and one which comes from the group the photo was invited into.
See first two comments here:

I'm also seeing the script problems on my MacBook that others have been reporting.

Firefox: 3.6.6
Safari: 5.0 (6533.16)

The really odd part about the behavior is that it seems to be sensitive to the route/yimg.com server it uses. I've added more gory details to the following discussion thread.

In FF3.6 with Windoze, I no longer have the Replace option, due to my pro account expiring a couple of days ago, but the Rotate option has also died for me. I can see the option in the Actions menu, but I just get the interminable "egg-timer" (blue and pink animated dots) when I click on it.

I'm running Google Chrome on a Mac (Snow Leopard).
The new photo page looks great, but when I try to do actions like "add to/ remove from a group" nothing happens. I click on that action, and the progress bar at the bottom of the window comes to life for a split second, and then it goes away. No new page or options load. I can't add something to a group without going back to the old photo page.

Browser: Chrome 5.0.375.70 on Win XP SP3.
I upload my pics with Flickr uploader and often include <strong>, <em> and <a href=""> tags in the picture descriptions. It would seem that strong and em are not being styled in the new photo details page, but are if I use <b> and <i>. However, if I do use ANY of these tags and go into edit the description in the new photo details page, any content BETWEEN the tags has disappeared!
Tags seem to be preserved if I edit a description from my photostream view, however.
Very annoying!

Thanks for fixing the Favorites issue for the new photo page. :-)
As for rotating of photos, I always do that before uploading to Flickr unless I use the option to edit a photo in Flickr with Picnik and use the Crop feature and use the 768 for the left setting and 1024 for the right setting before saving that to my computer and then posting to Flickr. I don't use the option in Flickr to rotate anymore.

Another rewording related "bug"…
Browser: Safari 5.0, Mac OS X 10.6.4, no extensions.
Bug: When the mouse hovers over a tag in the right hand column, a pop up appears that says "View photos from this user or from everyone." The phrasing is the same whether it is your own photo or whether it is someone else's photo. The "from this user" bit seems impersonal compared to other portions of the UI. Perhaps it should say "from yourself" (if it's one of your own photos) or "from [user name]" (if it's someone else's photo).

kitby I wouldn't call that a bug, just bad wording, like the "200 most popular bits" that still remains on www.flickr.com/photos/me/popular-interesting/
I could come up with some better text labels if I give it some thought. What's more annoying for me is that the on-hover text creates a horizontal scroll-bar in my browser when I hover on the right-hand side of the "cloud". That would be another vote in favour of the classic tag list.

Not sure if this is related to the new photopage, but the name of the district for photos taken in the historical center of Utrecht, NL seem plain wrong. Or, to be more exact, the center isn't recognized at all and the name of a neighboring district is used instead.
For example both these photos of the Dom church (located where the city was founded) are being credited as taken in Tuindorp:
While Tuindorp is a more family-oriented district which looks more like this:
It's not a huge issue, but it would be very cool if the district would be correct.

IE8, Win7
I'm following up on an earlier comment about not being able to delete a photo from a set if it has been added to more than one set. I thought perhaps if I first deleted it from the only set that has the X in Actions > Add to / remove from set, I could then delete it from the incorrect set and just add it back to the first set. Wrong. Even though I deleted it from one set and confirmed that it was not in that set by checking the list of sets on RHS, it still shows as in that set in Actions > Add to / remove from set. In the example below, you can see on the right that the photo is not in the "2010 Traces and Trails" set even though it appears to be in the menu:

Does "Add a tag" really need to be at the top of the ever-growing list of actions? All it does is change the focus to the "Add a tag" box on the right of the screen, which is already marked with a blue box labelled "ADD".
Tags can also be edited by clicking on "Edit title, description and tags" at the bottom of the 'Actions' menu. The top option would appear to be overkill. (Likewise with "View EXIF info" now that that is (sort of) available on the top right-hand side of the screen.)
Is the 'Actions' menu going to get longer and longer with each new feature, with some links being duplicated and others - that may actually be more useful - getting buried? Keep it simple.

Hi to everyone who is having issues with notes:
- I have deployed a fix that should fix the issue where IE 8 users would not be able to do anything without opening the lightbox
- To those who cannot see notes at all on other people's photos: you are not insane. We have determined that this bug only occurs in some languages (Italian and French for example). We have a good idea and are working on a fix.
Thanks all and keep those bug reports coming!

@ Kevin -
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by *every single photo page* - but I tried about 5 or 6 photos, some with comments, some without and got the same script error each time I clicked on a photo.
In addition -- none of the links on the right side work (can't name people tag, or put on map, etc.), nor does the "share this" link work. I can view the photos on black and scroll through them there, but go back to the original page and the script error reappears. The intro (step 1, 2, 3) is not there nor is the panda that pops up. I know about this because my other computer works on firefox, and IE 8 and Safari work on both computers.
In short, I can see no difference between safe mode and regular mode in Firefox in the way this works.

@SweetMeow-
"I'm not exactly sure what you mean by *every single photo page* "
I mean: Every single photopage you visit on Flickr now. Bar none. All of them. Without exception. They all do it.
That's what I mean. :)
Because if some do *not* generate this error for you, we want links to something that does, and something that does not. I *would* like to get a few sample links of something that does regardless. If you can post them here, that would be swell. :)
Hi Monquee:
"Not sure what is going on - this is from one of my oldest photos. below is the image that shows in the new version"
Yes, that's in our known issues list at the top of the page- Some older images are not showing the 640 version on new style photopage, instead showing a broken icon.
We have some things to do in order to get some of the older photos (especially some uploaded in 2004 time frame) for the page to properly display. We'll get to it though! :)
@Wil- re the admin/mod invite bit, thank you- we will add that!

I'm keeping an eye on what may or may not be a bug with the new photo page. I've experienced an issue with not being to save updates to descriptions to a photo I've posted, based on how much text the description is.
I'm previewing the new photo pages under Chrome 5.xx for Windows, with three extensions - Adblock, the browser bar button for Adblock, and Google Mail Checker. I'm running Chrome on Windows XP Home, Service Pack 3. (Went to Chrome after major memory leakage issues with Internet Explorer 7, especially when running for more than a day straight.)
The text in the description field weighed in at nearly 1100 words (1,087, after pasting the text into Microsoft Word) - I was able to initially post the description when completing the photo upload, but when going back in to edit and save the text, it would display "saving..." and do nothing, instead of updating it. Deleting all the text and saving would result in successfully carrying out the save.
I switched back briefly to the "present" photo page style, and was able to save the rather long description without issues, and promptly switched back to the preview version.
I'm not sure if it was a minor network issue, or an issue with how the new photo pages are coded. (I'm not an expert on AJAX, or PHP, but I'm teaching myself when it comes to running my own web sites. ^_^;)
I'll try to replicate the issue again to see if it was just a fluke, or if it is indeed capable of being replicated and is an actual bug.
Other than that, I do tend to get rather wordy in some of my photos. ^_^;
Nice work so far, and I'm getting used to it.

Thank you for fixing right click save. I'm no longer able to save photos this way.

I'm having an issue with images that are invited to groups. As has been mentioned before, admin group invites create two invites on our recent activity pages. In two separate instances, although I click "No, thanks." to both invites, the image still ends up in the group pool. I have to use the "Add to/remove from group" dialogue from the Actions menu on each image to remove it from the group pool. Not sure if this is a case of a double negative creating a positive, but it's definitely buggy.

To Julie Anne M: Do you have another browser like Firefox you can try what you cannot do with updating descriptions of items uploaded?
Dexell1827: Right now, until we are using the new photo page permanently, both the admin invites of the old photo page that many still like and the admin invites of the new photo page are running concurrently. And to me, having a photo or video show up in a group (some groups don't allow videos; some only videos) when you say No Thanks to an admin invite does sound like a bug to me.
As for more on seeing admin invites of both the old photo page and the new photo page, sometimes you cannot click on the second one at all after accepting the invite to a group. When that happens, clearing the browser cache saves the day, at least it does for me. :-)

Lightbox messes with the Back button (page history). Using Firefox 3.6.6 on OS X Leopard.
This may have been reported before, e.g. here.

"Grab the link" - why is this needed - and can get the link to the photo page easily from the web browser URL bar. Also, why doesn't this give me the URL of the image - like it did before - was so nice when creating a post with the need to provide a link to a larger size image, for example. That functionality seems to have disappeared. Furthermore - I can click on "show short URL" but once I have it - how do I get back to the long version? So far, I had to leave the new page preview and enter it again - that can't really be the solution?

In my last photo, my contacts can't write comments, only friend can do it!
But in two or three photos I can't write and I'm signed as friend...
My browsers are Firefox 3.6 and Google Chrome (Windows).
Thanks

In Opera 10.54 in Windows XP SP3 (Opera/9.80 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en) Presto/2.5.24 Version/10.54) I cannot comment on any picture - only get offered a choice of how to format. ;-)

maybe not a bug, but who knows.
<em> and <strong> tags don't work on the individual photo pages. the <i> and <b> tags do, though.
(using Firefox on both a Mac and PC)

I'm not sure if this is related to the new page or not, but you can no longer see your original email when you get a Flickr Mail reply from a contact. (You used to be able to click the link to see the message you sent originally)
Should I post this in the normal forum?

The Slideshow (not the lightbox) functionality has been broken in the preview. It is no longer contextually aware of where you are viewing the photo from.
Here are a couple screenshots documenting what I'm referring to.
www.flickr.com/photos/ruettiger/4748802323/
Up top if you look at the URL in the red box you will see that I'm in a Set.
When I hover over the view slideshow link the hyperlink URL is displayed at the bottom of the screen.
The new preview version is on the left with the old version on the right.
The old version takes you to a slideshow for the Set at www.flickr.com/photos/ruettiger/sets/72157624269126330/sh...
While the preview slide show takes you to a slideshow for the photostream at www.flickr.com/photos/ruettiger/show/with/4733797177/
I see this behavior in both Firefox 3.6.6 and Chrome 5.0.375.86

BUG!!!
problems with Firefox 3.6.6 on a fast Vista machine:
With the new beta version of flickr, the magnifier above the photo is crashing Firefox every time, it will not work.
The magnifier, however, does work well with IE8 - which I hate and refuse to use, so I hope you guys will keep the current version iof flickr operational because the "upgrades" you have made are of questionable use, so I will never use it unless it can work with Firefox, the best browser ever.
Thanks for your time.

Michel is catching up :-) said: “the magnifier above the photo is crashing Firefox every time, it will not work.”
Are you by chance running any scripts or add-ons that you can disable?
Firefox works perfectly for me on both Vista and XP...

Running IE8 and i like the look so far but have noticed a couple bugs.
other peoples photostreams(the one on the right with the thumbnails) seem to work ok, they just hide at first, but mine however i thought did the same thing but when you click on my photostream it just takes me to my actual photostream page and not the bar of pictures in sequence.
And also which i have seen posted here before is the "next" and "last" buttons.
Oh and also the map feature is useless as of now after 4 attempts to map my photos.

NYC.andre: Opera is not supported for the new photo page. Do you have another browser like Firefox you can use for commenting on photos and videos?

@tv writer- Right, that is best posted in the Help Forum.
@loupiote: "fixed in photo descriptions only, but the bug is still there:
it is not fixed in group postings. i tried to add an "img" tag in a group post, and it got "borked"."
Group discussions are not part of this project though there may be a small chance *something* may have affected it, however I am able to add img src based markup in group posts without a problem. So, if you want to provide more detail to duplicate, please do.
@OneCrookedVulture:
I'm not sure I understand the issue with photostreams you are reporting, can you clarify? :)
"as of now after 4 attempts to map my photos. "
Can you tell me what happens please?
@Michel- I am unable to duplicate that. Can you please mentioned if you have tried disabling any extensions/scripts as Wil C. Fry notes in the post right below yours?
@nightbird- that markup should be working, I just verified the behavior. Want to give it another try?
@Lםla (like a buıםןןɹ ǝuםʇs!)
You can change who has permission to comment on the photopage itself under the 'Owner Settings' link on the sidebar (or, the 'Impostazioni del proprietario' link)
(Will followup with some more posts soon. :)

Went to make a cup of coffee, came back and found myself trapped in the New Photo Page format which I have no use for, don't like and which won't let me use trailr or other greasemonkey scripts.
I had not touched anything to change the format to New Page, and the 'opt out' option did not show up on either my photo pages or my front page of photostream (as it had when I trialed it).
I visited Help Forum and clicked the 'opt out' link numerous times - the response told me that I had opted out, but it was lying to me :-(
I posted a request for help here:
www.flickr.com/groups/newphotopagepreview/discuss/7215762...
and was advised by Chrisser to report the problem here.
New page format persisted until I'd signed in/out of flickr twice + continued clicking of 'opt out' button.
When I left my photostream to post here, the format was back at Old View.
If the New Photo Page style imposes itself on my account, uninvited, again what do I do to escape back to the old view, with no opt-out button appearing on this rogue New Page, and 'opt out' buttons in the Help Forum which don't work?

Hello, I'm having problems with the Action Button. At times it does not allow me to invite pics to my Groups.
P.S. I love the new set-up.

Hi Gemma-
(And for anyone getting the broken Actions/Share menu in Internet Explorer 8)
Can you tell us if you by chance have the Cooliris plugin for Internet Explorer installed on your computer?

@GP Images Photography- it would be great if you see it again to instead see a link to the image in question and *your* screenshot of how *you* see the privacy preference for the photopage in question, and then not change a thing and then we can take a peek. :)
@Julie Anne M. I was able to duplicate that behavior exactly- thanks for bringing that up to us!
@*hbxx* replace is under the 'Actions' menu above the image. Check there, please?

Here is a screen grab of my latest upload: i48.tinypic.com/2dudms4.jpg. To say that your latest tweaks don't look nice here is an understatement. I never actually opted in to the cool fresh new look of Flickr, but now that it's been forced upon me, I'm not too happy. I have a pro account, so I shouldn't have to look at something so ugly (the layout, not what I've uploaded, that is). Do I have to run right out to buy a larger monitor to use this site now?
The bug is: This is what all my photo pages look like in my browser/on my monitor screen. This is what every image looks like to me whether I've uploaded it.. or a contact has uploaded it.. or a complete stranger has uploaded it. That surely doesn't look good to you?
My browser version is Firefox 2.0.0.20, Win2000. I see that you are not supporting that any longer. It would have been nice to have gotten a head's up on that. I wouldn't have renewed my Flickr account for two more years. I upgraded to the latest Firefox, didn't like it as much as 2.x, and made a decision to go back. I shouldn't have to be forced to upgrade. (I'm not here to argue this point. You can rail on about vulnerabilities. As I said, I'm not here to argue this. Most sites that I do go to, including Facebook, work just fine. And if they stopped working I wouldn't care. I pay to use this site.)
I am not using any Flickr related extensions and I don't use Greasemonkey at all.
