About The No to the New Photo Layout Group

We, the loyal members of Flickr, are outraged that Steward and Caterina are leaving Flickr they have changed the way photos are laid out. We have put up with a lot from Flickr in the last few years. The constant outages, the move to Yahoo, that weird bug where contact's photos didn't display properly and know one could see our images properly. Video was the second to final straw. And now then the founders who do all the work on the site are leaving leave. AND THEN they change our page layout. This is an outrage! Especially from a paid service! This just proves that Yahoo is in it for the money!

It's time for us Flickr users to STAND UP. E-MAIL YAHOO. WRITE TO FLICKR. POST ON YOUR BLOG / YOUTUBE. They can take our Flickr from our cold dead hands!

If Flickr isn't restored to it's rightful owners soon, let's all switch off and use something else instead!

INVITE ALL YOUR FRIENDS MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD

Poem received from Happy Photos Explorer (SAY NO TO PHOTOS ON FLICKR)


First they came for the people who didn't want to pay
and I did not speak out
because I was not a person who didn't want to pay.
Then they came for the people who didn't like Yahoo
and I did not speak out
because I was not a person who didn't like Yahoo.
Then they came for the people who didn't like videos
and I did not speak out
because I was not a person who didn't like videos.
Then they came for the people who didn't like Stewart and Caterina leaving
and I did not speak out
because I was not a person who didn't like Stewart and Caterina leaving.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.
