Have been over my "allowed" limit for ages and keep getting reminders to upgrade to pro account for $25. Is it worth it or should I just open another free account?

Gives you unlimited sets and collections and no monthly upload limits. You can also archive high-res shots.

Depends how much you use it, but I reckon it's pretty good value.

if you take a say a thousand or so pics a year than most defiantly yes.

15 quid a year gives you unlimited sets, no ads, unlimited uploads, backup of all your photos. I'd say it is worth it, plus Flickr is such a good site I'm not unhappy paying something to use it.

I have a pro account but pay nothing.

Think it's because I have btinternet as my broadband provider.

Same here, Pro account as I'm with BT.

I'd say worth it...used to be a user of Fotopic, signed up to Flickr but never really got started due to the limit on number of collections.

Then my Fotopic subscription expired, tried Flickr again and realised I had been upgraded to a Pro account 🙂 Stuck with them this time.

I've used [url= http://greggman.com/pages/flickrdown.htm ]flickrdown[/url] in the past. Does the job, been around a long while now though, there might be better stuff out there.
