Flickr Pro Account Giveaway Results
First of all, thanks goes out to everyone who participated! I wasn’t expecting so many heartfelt comments, but memories have a way of tugging at our emotional strings.
Surprise, Surprise
Due to the generosity of Adam Michela, Adam Smith and Alberto Gonzalez I’m now giving away not just one Flickr Pro account, but four five! This is fantastic considering I was fretting over the fact that I only had one prize to give out.
The Winners
Now for what you’ve been waiting for; our judges have decided (based on a combination of brainpower and caffeine) and the winners are: Robert Pollack, Rob Cottingham, Henna, Kenneth and Bryan Peters.
Congratulations! I hope you enjoy your new Flickr Pro account and look forward to seeing your photographs. To those individuals who won, please contact me so we can square away the details.
To those who didn’t win, I’ll be offering a few more contests spread out over the course of this year and because you participated this time you’ll be automatically included in the next contest (scouts honor).

Hey Eric,
By the time I opened up your email and checked this page, the contest was over - soooo sorry I couldn’t help with the contest. Really liked the idea, I myself am trying to come up with some sort of flickr giveaway for the soon-to-be launched donniejeter.com - any ideas?

Wahoo! I’m a winner! My mom was was right all along…
Reading others’ childhood memories got me thinking (and sentimental). I had lunch with my folks today and told them that story, and they couldn’t believe I remembered it. I couldn’t either. It’s there, it just needs to be coaxed out.

Dear Sir,
I am Chiayu Peng from China,
I begun using Flickr to store and share my digital photoes not long ago.
I have a digital camra of myself, and I take a lot of photoes every month.
But, a free Flickr account can only upload a limited photoes, just 20M, it not enough for me.
I tried to upgrade to a Pro account, but I have no International credit card such as Visa or Discovery Card to pay.
So if you have enough money, can you please buy me a Pro account.
Thank you so much if you could help.
