7. • Access Control:
 Flickr provides both private and public image storage.
 A user uploading an image can set privacy controls that
determine who can view the image. A photo can be flagged as
either public or private.[46]
 Private images are visible by default only to the uploader, but
they can also be marked as viewable by friends and/or family
 If a group is private all the members of that group can see the
photo. If a group is public the photo becomes public as well.
 Flickr also provides a "contact list" which can be used to control
image access for a specific set of users in a way similar to that
of LiveJournal.
 In November 2006, Flickr created a "guest pass" system that
allows private photos to be shared with non-Flickr members.

8. • Filtering:
In March 2007, Flickr added new content filtering
controls that let members specify by default what
types of images they generally upload and how
"safe" their images are, as well as specify that
information for specific images individually.
 Individual images are assigned to one of three
categories: "safe", "moderate" and "restricted".

9. • Licensing:
Flickr offers users the ability to either release their
images under certain common usage licenses or
label them as "all rights reserved".
The licensing options primarily include
the Creative Commons 2.0
Several museums and archives post images
released under a "no known restrictions" license

10. • Interaction and Compatibility:
The core functionality of the site relies on
standard HTML and HTTP features, allowing for
wide compatibility among platforms and browsers
Flickr's functionality includes RSS and Atom feeds
and an API that enables independent programmers
to expand its services
This includes a large number of third-
party Greasemonkey scripts that enhance and
extend the functionality of Flickr
