UPDATE:I uploaded a few of the photos from the Takeout to my Flickr account.It all works well. Titles and EXIF data are also transferred.ONLY Panoramio photos that are mapped, but NOT selected for GE/GM are not mapped on Flickr
I don't know.Of course the problem can't be at Flickr, so it must be something in the data coming from Panoramio.Or it's just a co-incidence.I have not (yet) uploaded all 4842 photos from my Take-out to Flickr.But the biggest problem with Take-out is that you lose the sequence in which your photos were uploaded.They appear alphabetic in Take-out.
Furthermore almost all the labels and titles are gone too
Hello Tomas - In the past when I downloaded my Panoramio portfolio [982 images at the time] I saw that image file sizes had been reduced anywhere from 200kb to 800kb. All images were uploaded at 1.5MB to 2MB.
All file names are based on the title of the image not the Panoramio number, and of course, the files are alphabetical based on title name.
I don't know if other users know the download flies have been reduced in size.
So what size are the files when uploaded to Flicker?

That's strange. Can you reproduce it and give me an example of "shrinked" photo? Are you sure original size was bigger?One thing that is great on Panoramio (and in fact, it was one of the reasons I decide to use it as my photo site) is that you can get out from Panoramio exactly the same file as you put in.
All file names are based on the title of the image not the Panoramio number, and of course, the files are alphabetical based on title name.
There is nothing like "fixed order" in the set of the files in any folder. You can reorder the files according couple of keys. One key is file date. If you are on Windows, extract all photos from zip archive into one folder. Right click at some empty space of that folder workspace and context menu shall appear with command "Sort by". Choose "Sort by" and option "By Date".

Keep on asking... ;-) But I don't know about it.

Thes three photos were mapped in Panoramio, but not selected for GE
Uploading from the Take-out to Flickr leaves the unmapped on Flickr ( https://www.flickr.com/photos/101861343@N04/ )I only tested a few phots so far, so it is possible that this is a coincidence.I don't know.The three next photos on my Flickr account come from the same Take-out and were mapped on Panoramio AND selected for GE.As you can see, they were also mappen on Flickr.Panoramio ID's of these photos:http://www.panoramio.com/photo/24739273http://www.panoramio.com/photo/24739261http://www.panoramio.com/photo/24739248
I also noticed that the two pictures with special signs in their title were corrupt in Takeout (I replaced them with my own copies before the above comparison).
ONly few had the tags associated with them and I've found none with the geo-position - unless those that had them in the first place (some were taken with a GPS festured camera).
Erhard,please, can you give example of corrupted titles from Takeout?Give us photo ID and title and more accurate description of what is corrupted (title, photo content, photo is not included in takeout set...)
My attempt went fine on first try....highly unusual......Now I sit and wait to decided whether I ditch view/panorama or not. I really am tired of Google screwing things up, such as the things they've done with panoramio, and don't like some of the aspects on View. Now I wonder if there's an easy way to load them onto another site(ie:flickr, nat geo)Mike
The difference between the two is that the Takeout image includes additional Panoramio metadata (photo title, geolocation). We don't change the pixels, it's just additional metadata. This does require re-encoding the file, which means we may be removing some additional cruft when we re-encode. I need to figure out exactly what that is.
