I am a pro user, but I don't have a recurring subscription, I just rebuy it every 2 years, now I'm going to have to pay double for no ads, seems like I got screwed most of all.

I'm in the same boat. Also, the narcissist in me will miss the stats feature.

Hell, I've made thousands of dollars from stats. You'd be surprised how many image thieves at big companies throw a link back to your stolen images, as if that makes everything all better.

500px.com seems more geared towards professional photographers, if you're looking for such an option.

I agree that the flickr redesign is horrible, but I don't think 500px is that much better. Photos are still too close together and have text and UI elements overlayed. It looks messy to me.

500px also mechanically crops your images to square in the main listing, completely changing your compositions. This is a deal breaker for me.

From what I'm reading, existing Pro users will be grandfathered and have the ability to continue with their existing subscription.

Adblock doesn't eliminate the ads for you?
