In addition, in Story Map Cascade you can search Flickr publicly shared photos by keyword to add into your story, the same way you can search and access Unsplash images.

For example when you access Flickr images from the Story Map builders you can enter the name of any author in order to find albums they are sharing publicly (so if you enter 'Rupert Essinger' you can access my public albums). Officially, our support for photos in Flickr and Google+/Picasa has always been intended as a way for people and organizations who are already using those photo sharing systems to easily integrate them into Story Maps, and also provide a way for Story Map authors to access photos that other folks are already sharing publicly using those systems. Questions: Does Esri have a good solution for photo hosting that will integrate with Story Maps and other ArcGIS Online‌ areas? Since Google Picasa is dead, will Esri use Google Photos as a solution (or is Google Photos not sharing-friendly enough)? If you are a free member with more than 1,000 photos or videos, you will have ample time to upgrade to Pro (for 30% off your first year) or download your photos and videos. Flickr isn’t Flickr without the contributions and participation of our free members, and we remain committed to a vibrant free offering. Here is their announcement:įree accounts will soon be limited to 1,000 photos or videos. I imagine this will break many story maps once Flickr/Smugmug starts slowly deleting these photos. In any case, Smugmug's acquisition of Flickr means that Flickr free accounts (which formerly allowed 1 TERABYTE of photo and video hosting) will be limited to 1,000 uploaded photos.

According to some, they're just being reasonable.
