Default Flickr comment notifications?

Someone commented on a picture of mine at flickr, and I only happened to notice it. I'm searching through the options there tonight, but can't seem to find where to set it to tell me when a comment is made.

Am I missing the option somewhere? I've got a pro account. If the option is not available, how do you keep on top of acknowledging comments?

Personally, I go to the the "You" menu, choose "Recent Activity", and click "Activity on my Photos". That will show everything that's happened on your photos, with the most recent first.

Follow this link: Flickr Comment Notifications

It should take you to the account settings for your account, but if it somehow doesn't get you to just the right spot, click on your user name in the top right corner, click on the Email tab in your account settings, then click on Receiving activity notification emails.

An alternative, go to your Recent Activity page, and down the bottom, use the Feed icon and add it to your browser (most modern ones support RSS feeds these days). Then you can keep an eye on comments in your browser

Thumbs up

Ah-ha! There it is, thanks. And also for the tip on the "Recent Activity / On my Photos" page. Very handy.

Cheers.
