3 months free for Flickr pro account

It's only some of the pro features it unlocks such as access to 200+ photos and original photo downloads. If you want to see the stats of your photos for example then you still have to pay.

I do not think that is quite correct. I have their 'pro' account and after I clicked on the offer and accepted it I was told that my next payment will be shifted by 3 months - that sounds to me like a full 3 months of pro account for free.

But maybe for those who do not have the pro account the amount of features with this offer is limited.
 
nice little perk from Flickr. got this too. seems they are awaking from their hibernation, new iDevice app is great 🙂

I have the Pro account. When I activated the 3 month extension ALL of the features were extended not just some...

So yeah if you were already pro then it seems it extends it, otherwise it just gives you certain perks.

Either way, I'm not complaining.
 
Don't like Flickr....
Others have these perks also from time to time, so, it isn't that special. It for sure isn't enough to lure me away from SmugMug!
 
Here's the offer for current Pro users:
Please enjoy 3 more months of Flickr Pro for free as our way of saying thanks this holiday season!

As a reminder, here’s what you get with Flickr Pro:

Unlimited* uploads (up to 50MB per photo)
Unlimited viewing of your entire photo library
Post photos in up to 60 groups
Download your original, high-resolution photos – whenever you need them
Upload and play unlimited HD videos
Browse Flickr completely ad-free
View stats on your account
 
I accepted gift but got nothing. Probably because I've disabled automatic renewal of subscription (don't like automatic payments neither in skype or everywhere else). If I stay, that's not because of gift, if I go gift isn't stopping me.

Hi,
Aren't videos limited to 90 seconds?

I am not on auto renewal and accepted, extended by three months.

The "catch" is that if you are not on auto-renewal, accepting the gift activates it - at least that is my understanding.

That is fine by me, I was not on auto-renewal and I am happy to take three months in exchange for activating that.

True, the new App for iPhone look very interesting to me so far. A huge leap compared to the old one.

It was about time for Flickr to do something with Pinterest and Instagram that offer lot of features and nice presentation.

Now I hope that they would work with Abode for a better integration in Lightroom.

Update from Staff (Sat Dec 22 18:10 2012 GMT-8):
...
- We introduced auto-renewal on January 25, 2012. If you purchased Flickr Pro on or after that date, you are on auto-renewal. If you purchased Flickr Pro before that date, you are NOT on auto-renewal. If you do not wish to be on auto-renewal, simply cancel your subscription prior to its end date. Accepting the Holiday Gift will not sign you up for auto-renewal.

Of course the more comments I read, the more confusing it became. 😉
 
For Pro users it extends your suscription. For non-pros it gives you some extra perks, stats not being one of them. My Pro account expired a few months ago and I haven't renewed it yet, so this is a nice gift from Flickr.

I like Flickr and I hope it gets more love from Yahoo.
