Yahoo! has announced the launch of Flickr wall art in international markets. With this, Flickr is bringing the best photographers from around the world to the public’s walls. There are over 50 million images available.
Earlier, Yahoo! announced a new way to share personal photos with Flickr Wall Art. Now, not only can buyers/users turn own personal photostream into museum-quality prints to hang on walls, but can order hand-selected collections from Creative Commons images and Flickr’s licensed artists.
This is the first time that the Flickr community can purchase the work of Flickr’s licensed artists directly on Flickr and in turn, these photographers can sell their work directly on Flickr. These photographers are part of the Flickr Marketplace. The Flickr team has chosen a selection of these Flickr-licensed photographs in popular categories — abstract, landscapes, travel, animals, and more — that users can browse and buy.
The Premium Photo Mounts are printed with professional grade paper, mounted with 1” wood-textured edges. Buyers can also select the Gallery Canvas Wrap, artist-grade canvas stretched across a traditional 1.25” wood frame. And, these Flickr creations are available to ship internationally.
Yahoo! is headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, and has offices located throughout the Americas, Asia Pacific (APAC) and the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) regions.
