Picasa2Flickr: Picasa2Flickr is a simple “plugin” that allows picasa users to upload their photos to Flickr in Java environment. Some changes on security in the latest Picasa release (v2.7 build 37.27) has disabled the use of Picasa2flickr plugin. Thus, if users want to add this plugin as an uploading tool to Flickr, users shall not install any version after v2.7 build 37.27 version. It is an excellent photo management software and and is very user friendly. It features all the basic and useful photo editing tools. With Picasa2Flickr plugin, the uploading process on Flickr is made easier and more manageable.

ACDSee 10: The Latest verzion of ACDSee photo manager introduced a plugin, ACDSee 2 Flickr Uploader Verzion 2  to allow users to upload digital photos to flickr. This plugin allow users to select security, safety and content, set tags for individual images or all image  type  Select which ACDSee metadata fields (including IPTC and EXIF) to display in Flickr fields, create new Flickr sets or direct images to existing sets, resize large images and view the space remaining for the current month.

jUploadr: jUploadr is a another useful uploading tool developed by flickr users.  It is a cross platform and cross-site Photo uploader which can run on Windows ,Linux and OS X and supports both Flickr and Zooomr. The latest version of jUploadr is V1.2. This application allows users to set all properties of their photos before uploading. It also supports batch editing, so users can make short work of uploading a bunch of files.

Flickr Uploadr: Besides the flickr upload form, users can try an official uploading application Flickr Uploadr by flickr. The latest verzion of flickr Uploadr can be downloaded from  the Flickr tools page. It is a cross platform application which works well on either Windows or Mac. Users can just drag the photos from their hard disk into Uploadr and publish them straight away to their Flickr Account. Comparatively, Flickr Uploadr 3.0.5 has more features but is not so user friendly compared to Flickr Uploadr 2.0. For instance, Flickr Uploadr has problems in identifying Chinese characters even though it supports the Chinese language. It will mess up your photos labels if you use Chinese Characters to label them.
