Collapse Flickr comments – My first greasemonkey script

Friday, June 29th, 2007 at 8:09 am

I couldn’t sleep because of this bloody cold and thought I give Greasemonkey a go. One of my biggest annoyances in flickr is that when you comment on some very popular photo (normally containing a pretty lady and some nudity) you have to scroll through dozens of long comments in order to reach the next photo and comments. This gets exceedingly annoying when people think it is needed to have images depicting “flickr awards” that are as big as they are ugly.

Anyways, the script collapses all the comments and adds “+” links that allow you to show and hide the list of comments for each photo.

Hope it is helpful, my flickr experience became a lot less aggravating :)
