Flickr Upload Problems

Is anyone else having problems with uploading to Flickr? I can choose my shots but the "loading" bar just keeps going and going.

    I upload all my photo's via LR. Have you tried that method?

    I export a 3000 pixel image to a folder on my hard drive, then in Flickr upload from that. It takes about 20-60 seconds sometimes for each 3-5MP file to upload....so 10 images can take as much as 10 minutes...

    Nope, I haven't. I have the software, I just haven't bothered to use it.

    Hmm, I didn't know that it could possibly take that long. It was pretty snappy about a week ago, but now it just doesn't even finish.

    Sounds more like an internet connection problem than a Flickr one.
    Always learning.

    I had the same problem this weekend. Seems to be working fine now.

    Same thing here, Bland. Couldn't get it to upload yesterday afternoon, evening. Worked just fine this morning.

    The upload times do seem to be inconsistent. I will simply set the Macbook aside for a few minutes and do something else. One's internet connection does change as well, in my experience. Flickr will sometimes hiccup as well and not accept things if business is too good. :)>-
