Getting a flickr following

[PaulStat]

How long does it take to get a following at flickr? I comment quite frequently on other peoples pictures, add my photos to groups etc. etc.

But I only ever get a few comments. Do you get more comments if you sign up to a pro account?

Of course it could be people don't like my stuff, but that seems very unlikely

shared your photos? how do you mean?

oh added you by the way, you like cars don't you

I'm very much the kind of person who seeks approval from their pictures, if I can't give others a kick out of my pictures it depresses me

Shallow perhaps but meh!

I see what people are saying with the crap comments/spam. Would still be nice to be deemed worthy of spam though

Oh and to be featured on explore as well, that would be nice

Nice shots of the Lizard (I was supposed to be there the other day but never got there. ) however some of the PP leaves a bit to be desired IMO, specifically the Housel bay and Lizard lighthouse shots, a bit to misty and low contrast(HDR'd?) and not as good as your usual.

Yeah I know what you mean, and I do have some better more contrasty versions just not on flickr. And nope not HDR

some pretty good advice there Martin. Yeah I will take you up on that at some point

I'm game too, although I may run out of time in a month or so when my wife is due to pop our first sprog.
