My old photo hosting company (name rhymes with “freebase”) was plagued by downtime and the dreaded red X. Flickr has been rock solid, and their upload application makes uploading files a snap.

Well, the best just got better. Flickr Pro accounts will now enjoy unlimited storage and bandwidth. No more 2GB monthly limit!

(Not that I have ever approached 2GB of uploads in a month, but still, having no constraints is a plus in my book.)

Edit: I was trying to be nice and not bag on them because they might have been going through a rough spell when I was having the dreaded X problem, but I just visited their site for old time’s sake a few minutes ago, and this is what I found (click thumbnail for full-size image):

Edit 2: Even worse! Fer fark’s sake! But, hey, at least the photos themselves are showing up, right?
