I never jumped on the Flickr bandwagon. Not sure why. But recently I've started uploading my pages there and have found some cool groups to join for inspiration, both photo and scrap. I'm slowly coming around.

Also, I automatically have my iPhone pics upload there so it's sort of a back up for those. They are set up so that only I can see them. Just in case the kids grab the phone and they photograph something I don't want on the internet, hehe...

Oh, and did you know that The Lilypad has a Group? I just found it... And will be using it!

Anyone else use/love/hate Flickr? Any groups you love for inspiration?
 
I'll confess that I also never jumped on the Flickr bandwagon. I've never quite understood how it works.
 
I've been using Flickr for quite a while. For me it's just one more offsite backup for my full res photos AND a way to share layouts. I've used it as a way to share layouts with my daughter and other family members. I have a group with my DigiSisters (online and real life friends) that we use to share layouts about each other. I also post to several Flickr galleries including the Lilypad's group.

Now that Flickr has changed their rules and allow everyone so much storage, it's a free way to get an offsite backup. I've kept my Pro account just in case.
 
I've used it for a while - it's somewhat of a "backup" gallery for me. One Little Bird and Paislee Press also have groups!
 
I've used Flickr for years, but I don't upload full resolution images… I use it for posting images to my blog.
 
I used it a bit more when I've done Project 365. I haven't posted anything in awhile.
 
I use it as a backup for my full resolution layouts. (apparently I'm paranoid since I also have a cloud backup!). My mom likes that she can see the layouts I've done for her there.
I didn't know the lilypad had a group.
 
I don't use it for groups, but I do have a Pro acct (from before they changed things) and UL all my full res LOs and photos to it as an online backup system.
 
I use it to hold all of my pages now, and I upload to some groups.

There are a ton out there for scrapbooking. There's the Digiscrap Inspiration group (the Daily Digi) and they have a separate pocket scrapping group. Scrapbooking Junkies, Scrapbooking Ideas, Albums & More, All the Cool Kids Scrapbook, Scrappers from Around the World (some amazing pages), Scrap Happens... and then there are a ton of others for art journaling.
 
I tried it a couple of times in the past, but tend to stick with photobucket bc it is just more familiar.
 
I still have my pro account too. I upload photos there after I have edited them if I want to keep them or post somewhere. Also, use it as extra backup for my full res layouts (sorted by month/year).
 
I use it share my photos with my mom. I upload them with lightroom and only we can see them. I want to use it also as a photo backup but not sure if the photo are well organized in there...
 
it's my main photo back up - but I'm so far behind on editing, everything is just dumped in there, tagged as only me view. Really dislike their set/collection ordering system, and the fact that you have to list as public to see on Appletv. Haven't started uploading JPEG layouts - but found the TLP group - will have to get on that!
