Greasemonkey Scripts for Flickr

I use Firefox as my browser for Flickr, primarily because I can use several Greasemonkey scripts which add usability features to the Flickr pages. If you’re not familiar with Greasemonkey, it’s a Firefox add-on which allows scripts to be run which alter the display of a web page.

In no particular order, here are the scripts I use for Flickr along with links to the scripts and a short description of what they do:

Flickr EXIF Decorator: adds a small overlay to the upper left corner of an image displaying some basic EXIF information when the mouse is hovered over the image.

Flickr Move comment form up: moves the comment box to the top of the other comments (right below the photo).

Flickr New Contact More Links: adds additional information to the “someone added you as a contact” messages from Flickr, including links to the person’s Explore photos and thumbnails of their most interesting pictures.

Flickr Multi Group Sender: enables the ability to send a photo to more than one group via the “Send to Group” button in Flickr.

FlickrPM: adds a bunch of icons next to usernames in Flickr that link directly to profiles, FlickrMail, most interesting, and other options.

Thoughts? Suggestions for other good scripts I might enjoy? Leave a comment below…

    Excellent post. I was not familiar with Greasemonkey add-on for Flickr. This appears to have some great functionality and I look forward to giving it a go. Thank you for sharing this little gem.
