Flickr Functionality - Search & Replace Descriptions, Seen Referrer

Scripts can be awfully handy if you use Flickr to post your photographs.

An easy way to utilize these tools is via Greasemonkey, a Firefox extension. Add this to your Firefox web browser, and then add the scripts mentioned below. The extension page on Firefox is here.

Add Referer Into Comments lets you easily add the referer into comments you leave on other people's Flickr photos, letting them know where you saw their photograph. For example: "Seen on my Flickr home page" or "Seen in Teal".

The second handy script I'm going to mention today is very useful for editing the titles and/or descriptions of your photos in batches. "Title + Description Batch Tools" is best described in the Flickr Discussions here, and accessed here, along with other scripts by Steeev.
