Makes Flickr almost awesome - while waiting for SmugMug to fully fix it ;-)

Add-on summary

A multi-feature add-on to fix some annoyances, make Flickr more "explorative" and bring back some lost features...

The current major features:

  1. Album-teaser column on photostreams. In one of the big Flickr-updates some years ago, the column to feature a photographer’s albums or collections disappeared and made Flickr less gallery-like and less inviting for exploration in photographers' “backlog”. But Flickr Fixr puts back a column featuring albums on every photographer's photostreams. The 10 first albums as sorted in Flickr Organizer are shown in this column.

  2. Direct tag-links to same photographer's photos. When hovering the mouse over a photo-tag, Flick Fixr adds an extra link in tag, pointing to the same photographer's similar tagged photos.

  3. Links to album-map and album-comments. Adds two extra links in "album headers". One link pointing to a map with current album's photos, and another link pointing to the old hidden/forgotten page with album comments. The last is also a great page for reading (and editing) long album descriptions.

  4. Highlight geotagged photo on associated map + Google Maps link. Makes sure geoposition of photo is highlighted when following link to Flickr Map from a geotagged photo. Plus, on the photopage for a geotagged photo, also adds a link to show geoposition of photo directly on Google Maps.
