We have just released a GreaseMonkey plug-in, allowing
you to import your photos from Flickr.
Not only original photo is imported, but also:
- title and description
- private/public sharing option
- latitude and longitude
- the first 20 tags
- albums list (coming soon...)
Quick and easy. Here we go!
problem: does not work with my account on flickr :(
It runs through the images, looks pretty much like working great, tags and stuff is imported correctly - but it does not get the image data, only this "the picture is anavailable right now"-error from flickr:
Any suggestions why it fails?
Christophe Ruelle club has replied to 大青森 clubOnce again I was forced to install a new version with colors that make it unreadable: black characters on a background coded #111111 ("Keep the Flickr posted date") are almost black on black. I wonder on which screens it could be legible.
Once again, I wrote:
div.style.backgroundColor="gray";
on my own copy. But do they test it before releasing?
Ipernity often looks like DIY...
I had second thoughts and wondered whether they don't test it with Firefox and Greasemonkey, but only on Chrome and Tampermonkey. Not at all. Opened Chrome, updated the script and got exactly the same: a black rectangle, marked IMPORT TO IPERNITY in blue, a checkbox, and nothing besides. Simply bad work. Does not really matter: I'll go back to Flickr very soon...
What about "Priority Customer Support" for Club Ipernity members? Is that a total myth?
This is getting old. And very frustrating.
Many thanks --- muchas gracias --- mille mercis!
Let me amend that: I've used the importer for Sets/Albums - and that works well - apart from a minor quirk that you have to run it TWICE - the first time to import photos (from flickr to ipernity), the second time to add them to the Album.
The individual photo importer also works - and has worked for a few weeks.
As far as importing everything, I'm not getting the ipernity importer dialogue box at the top of my flickr photostream (which I didn't, before) - and that indicates to me that the importer is at least up and more or less running, though I haven't run it yet.
Hope this helps.
Incidentally, you might consider the following: download Chrome (which is a fairly speedy and generally inoffensive browser) - and then just use it to do the importing (of your entire photostram, your albums/sets/groups, and/or any individual photos - and once that's done, then you never have to use Chrome again (if you don't want to). Just a thought....
Good luck!
Yes, we finally could correct the script for the album import to Flickr.
Be sure, to refresh or set up it back before using the API.
Cheers :-)
