You can ensure that your 'views' and stats pages correlate.
Try to get 'views' and the stats to be the same. For instance, my picture 'Wan Sun Shirley' according to you when I view the picture has had 27 views. Going to stats it seems that it had 19 views today, 39 yesterday and only 27 all time...a lesser number. What gives guys?

Allow user choice of Justified or Thumbnail display in Stream/Groups/Search
As was before, allow the user the choice of viewing photos in either Justified or Thumbnail layouts. The reasons for this request are numerous and have been discussed ad-nauseum since the format change. This simple change would solve numerous issues.

Restrict posting by new accounts in the Help Forum
There is currently a persistent problem in the Help Forum with people creating new accounts in order to post abusive attacks on other users, then deleting the account. There is another problem in the Help Forum with spammers posting there from new accounts.
In order to make the first less appealing and not as easy, I suggest removing the ability of new accounts to post to existing topics. A new account holder with a genuine problem can start a new topic or contact Customer Support directly.
In order to address the second, a new account might have to wait, say,…

Excuse me, but I have two Ps....
...in my Tags page...
http://www.flickr.com/photos/GrfxDziner/tags/Hi,
I noticed my alphabet for my tags starts with P....for PicMonkey apparently too. Even when I click the P at the top, it takes me before the A. When I scroll down I have another P with all my P-word tags. The Machine tag beginning with P is what does this. Can we get differential between these two, and a separate tab up top?Thank you.

Improve loading speeds
Get a team that can make loading speeds faster. Watching the flickr page struggle to function as you scroll down is depressing. Thanks.

Let the location name link to the editing again and not to the organizr.
The location name on the photopage used to link to a pop-up window where, among others, the location name can be changed. This was very useful as most of the time the location name Flickr chooses is wrong. Now the location name links to the organizr, where you can change many things, but not the one which has to be changed most often: the location name. Please revert this change and link back to the pop-up again.

Pagination needs to be re-introduced in Search results and Group Pools, 120 photos per page would reduce frustration
Search results (and sometimes Group pools) can run into thousands hence cannot be loaded onto a single page

Reinstate Tag Cloud
Old Flickr had a Tag Cloud that showed the most frequently used tags in my Photostream. Each tag was shown in a size proportional to its frequency. This feature is missing in the new Flickr. Please bring it back. it is a great way to review and browse the Photostream.

It looks like anyone can download any image they want! Not cool!!!
I thought my images were safe here. This morning I`ve noticed (Thanks to the new format) that flickr offers viewers the option to download any image I`m looking at! Time to close my account altogether

Let us add text to Photo Books, including Titles and Descriptions
While I won't be ordering a photo book anytime soon (I would want to ship to Canada), when I do order one, I'll want titles and descriptions, plus to be able to put my name on the cover and title page. A bare minimum of layout options for that would be nice -- enough to make a photo album from a family event or something similar that can say who's in the different photos etc. That would make it appealing compared with, say, Blurb books, where I have to type up text myself ... but at least I *can* have…

I would like a slideshow that is a downloadable movie. It is better explained here from the old flickr Ideas group...

Remove the purple Yahoo! nav bar and replace it with a drop-down link on the black Flickr bar
The dark purple Yahoo! nav bar is an unnecessary item. It doesn't appear on non-English versions of Flickr, and it takes up too much valuable screen space on Flickr.
Have a drop-down link with a Y! logo right next to the Flickr logo on the black Flickr bar, and remove the dark purple Yahoo! nav bar.

Collections should be prominently displayed on menu strips: between Photostream and Sets.
Collections is one of the most useful Flickr features. It should be prominently displayed on menu strips.
On the upper menu strip: Photostream, Collections, and Sets should be placed between You and Contacts.
On the Photostream menu strip: Collections should be placed between Photostream and Sets.

don't put important links at the bottoms of pages that grow as you scroll
the main page has links at the bottom, except actually getting to them is an exercise so perfectly frustrating it seems intentional. this is the web-usability equivalent of putting your users on a hamster wheel.
please don't put links at the bottom of any page that expands as you scroll.

THANK YOU FLICKR ! THE "OLD" PHOTO PAGE IS BACK !! Throw away that aweful Beta one!
It was a Horror week, that Beta version of an "improved" photo page. Now all the great functionalities are back. The nice thumbnail strip of the photostream, the complete group and set lists, the great submenu for group posting with complete group names and member info, the extented comment list and of course the group invitation buttons for direct group posting, etc....
Now the next step: the Photostream pages, to slow, to often grey rectangles in stead of photos, much to long pages, bad scrolling with a lot of view crashes of some seconds... I Always use the old "Edit"…

With the change in the business model, I'd like to see a change in Flickr policy. How about allowing links to off site sales of our work?
Should I choose to sell my work, now that Flickr is free, would it be possible to change the very old policy of not selling our work. At the very least, could we now possibly link our work off site?
Alternately: Would it be possible to provide a payable account on Flickr to do so. aka Ad Free, Doublr, (Vendr) ?
