FlickrExport 2.0 released, no longer free

I love Flickr. I’ve completely given up on using .Mac for posting picture galleries. They may be prettier than a Flickr gallery, but it has a severely limited amount of space. Given these facts, getting pictures from iPhoto to the service is crucial. Uploaders work, but integration is crucial. My Mac should be able to handle this automatically. FlickrExport is that bridge.
It’s no wonder that Fraser’s software is so popular. Add the fact that it was free (donationware), and you’ve instantly got a huge userbase. He layed the groundwork and starting with 2.0, will be collecting upon the investment of all that hard work. It clocks in at $21 approximately, but given new features such as adding to existing photo sets and Flickr tag inclusion as well as the good feeling that comes with supporting a Mac developer, it’s well worth it.

I'll be holding back from ponying up twenty-one bucks for a plug-in as buggy as FlickrExport. It hangs, freezes iPhoto and never completes its upload.When re-trying it sends duplicate photos. Yes, Flickr is incredible (but no substitute for .Mac) and we do need a powerful and bug-free integrated plug-in. Does 2.0 FlickrExport do it? I'll be on the sidelines watching...
Me too. I think it's time to stay with the previous free version. :(
