Due to uploading problems that are still plaguing me through wordpress and added features I want to add like captions I am going back to using flickr as my photo host and have set up a template in ecto using 1001 as the flickr agent. Both pieces of software are created by the same people and integrate nicely together. I love the way Ecto integrates with iPhoto, but there seem to be problems with the uploading to wordpress. you may have noticed that my thumbnails are doing the now-you-see-it-now-you-don’t trick, I don’t know why. I am investigating it with WP (who’s support is great) and team ecto but it is going to take a while and I like my images!

I also like Flickr, the community system, the printing options and the interface. I am thinking of investing in a pro account even so that I can use my full resolution images and put even more up – but we will see how this trial goes first! if any of you have pro accounts please let me know what you think!
