Now that's cool

I have always thought flickr was a fantastic web application, that's why i signed up for a pro account early on. Now this arrived in my inbox this morning!

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 1, 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.

Now that seems like a really nice thing to do, and genuinely useful too, unlike so many freebies.

Thanks flickr
