Trying to get onto flickr - keep getting a message saying connection refused.

Is anyone else getting this problem?

Yep....seems to be down

simon ess · 23-02-2012, 9:56 PM

No, me neither.

But 2 days ago I had a hellava problem uploading a couple of pics. Had to try several times.

Seems they've got some problems.

Flickr is still in business? Really?

I'm amazed...

simon ess · 23-02-2012, 10:08 PM

Wow!!

Over 100 viewing.

Clearly affecting everyone.

I know - it's definitely losing its way. The only reason I have a pro account, is because I get it for free.

They need to change something. Quickly.

domino1999 · 23-02-2012, 10:11 PM

Probably those lovely folks at "Anonymous"

Biscuit761 · 23-02-2012, 10:15 PM

Phew, thought it was just me - how am I going to do my 366 set update tonight ???

With 279 viewers of this thread, that was a genius bit of advertising.

What's the record?

kkrause · 23-02-2012, 10:32 PM

I can't connect to Flickr either. It was up earlier today, at least at 10:a.m. PST. I keep getting the message "connection refused."

simon ess · 23-02-2012, 10:38 PM

Just in case.......

What are good alternatives?

It's free to BT Internet subscribers - So not really 'free'.

Liquid101 · 23-02-2012, 10:46 PM

Flickr Blog

simon ess · 23-02-2012, 10:49 PM

Cheers for that Liquid.

Why don't they just say what the problem is?

kkrause · 23-02-2012, 10:51 PM

Thanks! I went to the Flickr blog and they've posted messages that they're still working on the problem as of 2:45 PST.

Aren't they owned by the brainiacs at Yahoo? The company which is currently circling around the toilet bowl...

simon ess · 23-02-2012, 10:56 PM

Yes they are.

Yahoo is a disaster and deserves to get flushed.

I do like flickr though - for all sorts of reasons. I hope it doesn't go down the tube with yahoo.

simon ess · 23-02-2012, 11:14 PM

Seems to back up.

Biscuit761 · 23-02-2012, 11:29 PM

Day 53 now posted thanks to Flickr being back :-)

More advertising :-)))

And that doesn't mean I have a triple chin ...

Chubster · 23-02-2012, 11:45 PM

Ahhh. Well I'm a with BT. Will look into it when my pro runs out

domino1999 · 24-02-2012, 6:35 AM

I get it free with BT Broadband as well. BT are in bed with Yahoo for their email and other services, which is probably why BT BB customers get a free Flickr Pro accounts. God knows what will happen if Yahoo do go down the pan
