Support for multiple Flickr accounts...
I have two separate Pro Flickr accounts (one for my personal "snaps" — ie. vacations, holidays, etc. and a second account for my "commercial" work — in my case, wildlife & nature work). I have these separated between two iPhoto libraries (and a third iPhone library for videos, but that's another topic). FlickrExport for iPhoto only remember the last "login" used. I know there's probably not a lot of people with two separate Pro Flickr accounts, but it'd be nice if FlickrExport had the ability to switch between Flickr accounts.
Just an idea...

Inappropriate?Rquest noted, thanks. It's not something that a lot of people need, but I'll bear it in mind.
If other people would like this feature, please vote for it by clicking "I like this idea" on this page.

this is one of the best points

Inappropriate?Honestly, I think that it's something a lot more people might need than you can imagine. I currently have 5 accounts that I switch through (a pro for myself, one for my wife's company, one for my work, one for a band I manage, and one for a client that I help upkeep).
I could really use some sort of manager, openBar (open ID multi-account support), or other solution.
Thanks,

Inappropriate?Yea, since I posted the original I've been using my two Flickr pro accounts a LOT — and a number of times now I've sent images to the wrong account, had to delete them all, then upload again.
So, I know probably a lot of people wouldn't use it, but some would!
I’m ready to go home for the day...

Inappropriate?I'm definitely hearing more requests for this in 2008 than I ever have before. Keep hitting "I like this idea" and I'll keep paying attention.
-
Inappropriate?I finally caved over the weekend and started a separate account just for my cell phone images. It would be nice for all my photos to reside under the umbrella of a single account, but I don't like to display my more professional images alongside the low-res mobile snaps.
-
Inappropriate?Same here, I handle my personal flickr account, plus two for web sites I work for, and the process of switching between flickr accounts is a REAL PAIN (even in the browser, mind you). I think that, as the plugin is targetted to "pro" shooters (using Aperture is not exactly for the casual shooter), it is a situation that is likely to be common.
Cheers! -
Inappropriate?Agree agree agree
I have multiple Flickr accounts for work, personal, blog, portfolio etc etc.
Switching means going into Flickr and re-authenticating every time - a right royal pain. Please add multiple account support : )
I use Lite at the moment and would love this feature added. I'd even buy the full version if it had this feature....
Otherwise - keep up the good work - a truly useful plugin
Cheers
skelly
I’m excited
-
Inappropriate?Same to mee. Different accounts for different usages! Big thumbs up for this idea!
I’m confident
-
Inappropriate?I'm interested, but hopefully you could do this for Aperture, as well. My wife and I share Aperture, and dispatch photos based on tags therein. Would be nice to select which account to send (or, for the super hawt! Associate accounts with Aperture tags and dispatch accordingly)
I’m optimistic, as you're such a buff programmer
-
Inappropriate?Right now this is my "most wanted" feature in FlickrExport (both Aperture and iPhoto) and Darkslide
-
Inappropriate?I export to multiple Flickr accounts using an application called RooSwitch. It's faster than logging out and reauthorising each time. I've only tried it to post to multiple Flickr accounts from one iPhoto library though, I haven't tried it with multiple iPhoto libraries.
-
Inappropriate?I definitely like/need this. I have 2 accounts, and currently I have to only use one. grrr
I’m impatient for it to get fixed. :-)
-
Inappropriate?I'd really, really like to get this. I can't believe it's so difficult to get a second account on the same Yahoo login.
I’m impatient to get this fixed!

Since Flickr requires one yahoo id per flickr account (as far as I know), FlickrExport can't help you with that. That said, it would be really nice to be able to switch between flickr accouts/yahoo IDs within FlickrExport -
Inappropriate?As a temporary solution, maybe look into RooSwitch as a way of managing multiple sets of FlickrExport preferences?

Personally I use FlickrExport for the account I use the most and Flickr Uploader for the other. Not perfect - should probably look at rooswitch
