I... does anyone else have issues with the captchas used on this site? I never previously questioned my humanity but I can't seem to satisfy its definition of bridges and motorcycles.
I wonder how long they've had this policy in place. I've been using the same, illustrated self-portrait on LinkedIn since 2008.

Re:Smugmug Acquires Flickr on Saturday April 21, 2018 @02:06AM (#16890199)
I've been a Flickr pro user since 2007, and I still think it's the only site and community that is truly dedicated to serious photography. I think the site languished at the advent of the ubiquity of mobile browsing (be it app or even mobile site), and suffered from certain trends that yielded a strange mix of infinite scrolling and wonky pagination (I still have trouble finding my own photos).

I'm hoping for the best, and excited for new blood.
