"Let’s be honest, just because your photo appears on the explore page doesn’t mean that it’s a great photo."

Anyway, being a very regular user of Flickr, I found the article an interesting read.

Throw some Helvetica on that and a retro filter and we're looking at the cover for the next 'Flickr for Dummies'.

I have also found that retro computers, Star Trek and The Moon can cause a healthy spike in the stats.

It's all very hit-and-miss with Flickr.
By the way, it's nice to see you about these parts again, Simon.
