Make Use Of Podcast #37: Top Ten Flickr Greasemonkey Scripts

Nov. 16th, 2008 By Jason Mayoff

flickr greasemonkey scriptsA recent article by Jim Henderson about getting your pictures noticed in Flickr got me thinking about making Flickr easier to use, getting more out of it.  So, I’ve come up with the definitive list of the ten top Flickr Greasemonkey scripts.

10. Flickr PM – Adds useful links next to a users buddy icon

9. Flickr2Facebook – Makes it easy to upload Flickr images to Facebook

8. Flickr Cross-Recommendations – What people who faved this image also faved

7. Flickr Auto Page – Loads all photostream or pool images on one page

6. Flickr Move Comment Form Up – Moves comment form to just below image.  Useful on heavily commented-on images

5. Flickr Add Referrer into Comment – Lets photographer know in which group you found their image

4. Flickr Exif Decorator – Adds translucent, unobtrusive box with some EXIF info

3. Flickr On Black – Links to view any image on a black background

2. Flickr Comment Tools – Adds a few word processor type buttons to comment box

1. Flickr Multi Group Sender – Makes sending an image to multiple groups easy

If you’ve got some better ones, please let me know in the comments.

(BTW: Greasemonkey is for more than just Flickr.  Search for your favourites over at UserScripts.org)
