Get ready for a Flickr reboot as the photo sharing site gets a new owner
MacAskill did say that Flickr was a great community that has some of the most passionate photographers in the world.
Photo management platform SmugMug said on Friday it has agreed to buy popular image and video-hosting website Flickr for an undisclosed amount.
Today's announcement of the purchase of Flickr by SmugMug raises the question: will your Flickr pics live on?
Service to store and publish the photos Flickr, nahodivshihsya the last 13 years under the control of Yahoo, became the property of SmugMug.
Oath is weeding out some assets following its merging of Yahoo and AOL.
The mostly free Flickr was founded in 2004 and played a central role in the cultural and social life of the Internet.

The SmugMug acquisition will potentially benefit Flickr users offering access to a wider community and new tools to empower more creative visual storytelling for the photography-based Flickr users.
Founded in 2002, SmugMug has been around even longer than Flickr and, from the start, has defied conventional wisdom in Silicon Valley, never taking a dime from outside investors or entertaining buyout offers. Although small scale, SmugMug has attracted millions of customers with its devotion to photography and personal touch that often is lacking in service online that are run by huge companies. According to the Director of SmugMug don MacAskill, to join the platform will not be.
"We're thrilled for these two brands to come together to grow their photo sharing communities and continue to innovate for their members", Oath said in a statement to USA TODAY.
"I've been an on-and-off user of Flickr, though recently I've not participated there", Lisota said. Since then, the likes of Google Photos and Apple Photos have grown to overtake Flickr, which was acquired by Yahoo in 2005.
"SmugMug has acquired Flickr", reads an update on the SmugMug site.
