So I went to transfer my London photos to flickr. They took the first 18, which are here and I'm happy with how they turned out.

Then I hit flickr's 20mb transfer limit. Did you know flickr had a 20mb monthly transfer limit? I didn't. Grumble.

I haven't decided if I want to spring for a flickr subscription; in the meantime, I've put the rest of the photos on my own server.

My favourite of the flickr batch is probably Big Ben from the London Eye; and my favourite from the second batch is probably the dressy guy on the escalator at Harrods.

But really I like them all.

The Bletchley Park photos are in the second batch for those who have specifically asked for those! (I tried to not go overboard, there are others, let me know if I should upload them too).

For those who care: photos taken on my clunky but trusty Casio QV-3000, processing via f-spot. f-spot handles file-uploads and building online albums quite well. And if I ask nicely, I bet the developers will be able to add a "resize before uploading to flickr" feature, too.

...Dang. I just noticed there already is a "resize before uploading to flickr" feature. Well, now I know why. :/

There's a resize before uploading feature in the iPhoto Flickr plugin.

I need to upload my photos, too. There are a couple of you that aren't bad.

cool. Unfortunately there are only so-so photos of you. There's one of you that would be good, but there's a light pole in the way.

Oh! I just found one of you that's good.

Turn left behind Enterprise rent-a-car!

Somehow that wraps up much of the wonderful attitude of the place.

I mean, they could've put the sign announcing the entrance. But that would've been... wrong. It's definitely "turn left behind Enterprise rent-a-car."

One of my photos does have you in it, incidentally.
