But he doesn't see you. Creepy. Really, I'm just testing blogging from flickr. i am experimenting with the layout to see what I like the best, but I'm not sure yet.


Note: Email me if you are family or friend, and I'll add you as such so that you can see my non-public photos. :D

If it was on my own website, I might make them all public, but I don't like that flickr puts all public photos on rotation all over the main website. Plus, I have this paranoid fear about pics of my nieces being out in the public domain. Or, I'd *like* to think they are paranoid fears, but there are lots of sickos out there. :(

You seem to know what you're doing with flickr, what's the difference between a "contact" and a "friend"? Is one higher in "seniority" or whatever, than the other?

I put you down as a contact, because that's all I could figure out, and then everyone else I added turned into "friends."

I don't know what the difference is.

I wanted to add, that I made everybody consistent as "friend", but I don't know if that's a demotion or promotion in the flickr hierarchy.

"Contact" is the most general level. This is useful because you can restrict your photos such that only your contacts can comment on them and other things like that. "Friends" and "family" are two subcategories under contacts (they are, by default, also contacts), which you can use to further restrict viewing/commenting/annotating rights on your photos. Neither "friend" nor "family" is "higher" up the chain than the other, but you can say that some pics can only be seen by friends, and some by family, and others by both.

Another example to clarify is that you *can't* have a picture viewable by "all contacts" but not by family, because family falls under contacts.
