Woo hoo! I just got this email from Flickr Headquarters. They’re giving us 1337 Flickr Pro member goodies for being paying users so early and helping out with feedback, inviting our friends to the site, etc.. Thanks guys. I’m giving one of my free Flickr Pro accounts to my wife and I dun’t know who I’ll pass the other one along to yet. I’ll probably start uploading larger photos now too. 🙂
“Hi kk+!
You may have heard on the grapevine that we planned to
reward our dear Flickr members who bought a Pro Account in
the early days. Well, it’s true! And since you’re one of
those lovely people, here’s a little something to say YOU
ROCK!
1. Double what you paid for!
Your original 1 year pro account has been doubled to
2 years, and your new expiry date is Nov 29, 2006.
2. More capacity!
Now you can upload 2 GB per month.
3. 2 free Pro Accounts to give away to your friends!
This won’t be activated for a day or two, but when it
is, you’ll see a note on your home page telling you
what to do.
Thank you so much for putting your money where your mouth
is and supporting us, even while we’re in beta. Your
generosity and cold, hard cash helped us get where we are
today.
Kind regards,
The Flickreenies.”
