Flickr keeps track of all the views and comments made on your uploaded images and gives you a list of the most popular. There is an overall " most popular " based on the amount of views each picture gets and the amount of comments left and there is a " most popular " just based on views alone. The most popular card on Forgotten Faces is the one shown here and it comes out on top in both scenarios.
Do you know of any way to move earlier pictures in your photostream to the top. I was thinking that some of my original uploads may be worth moving up a bit ?
I think the best way (or at least the only way I can figure out how to do it) is to go into the "organize" section. Drag and drop the photos you want to move to the front into the batch box. Then go to the change date tab and change the date of the pix in the batch to today. Then click on the box on the bottom to organize by date taken instead of date uploaded. That should move all of the pix that you want to the front of the line. Hope that makes sense to you---it sounds confusing to me. Wish I could have explained it better. Email me if you have a problem or if it doesn't work and we will try something else. -shari
I have been collecting old postcards of the Isle of Wight for many years and it was quite by chance that during a search on ebay I discovered a real photographic card depicting a large group of family and friends on Ventnor beach. Taken around the 1920`s or early 1930`s by a local photographer who probably roamed the beach in search of business I was facinated by this image from the past.
Who were these people and how did they live their lives ? Did they all live nearby or were they on holiday ?
The truth is we will never really find out as they were just ordinary people who thought it would be nice to have their photographs taken, a spur of the moment thing that has survived to this day.
This is how my Flickr site Forgotten Faces began and you can visit by clicking on the View Flickr Photostream link at the top of this page or by going to My Complete Profile and clicking on My Web Page.
