It has been a mess to surf the Flickr site during the last days.
99% of my picture searches ended with the message shown above. Help, I’m from Germany with a “Flickr-SafeSearch” function that cannot be disabled.

No PRO upgrade, just deleted the account and call it a day.

Good Bye Flickr!

Regular visitors of this blog have already noticed the new design.
A major update has been done to a lot of the core files and of some plug-ins have been adapted too.
My host moved some weeks ago to a new provider with new servers and software versions. This move had the effect that the blog functionality was a bit “disturbed”, such as the contact form, being my most important communication interface with my visitors.
Being “in the run” with all the reprogramming and customizing, I have decided to add some more functionality to the blog. Soon, a shopping cart will be implemented as well, so you can easily browse my fine art portfolio and buy whatever you like in a very comfortable way.
The most time consuming task was the adaption of the layout to look identical in different operating systems (Windows, Linux, Mac) and browser versions, such as IE 5,6,7 or Opera, Firefox and Safari for Mac. As you can imagine, the IE 5 & 6 were the winner in the category “troublemakers” :-) At least every problem was solved and I think that I have done a good job.
I also want to thank the guys and gals from Browsershots for their service, helping to test the page and sending screen shots from different operating systems and browser.

If you encounter some problems or odd things, please do not hesitate to report.
I’ll try to fix it as best as I can :-)

Thanks for your patience and report.

Cheers,
Vernon Trent
