Flickr is disabling original image downloads for non-pro members. I'm concerned that non-pro uploader's content can't be downloaded by pro members (you pay, they didn't, so you can't get original images). If not now then expect so later. AI re-re-downloading the world has ruined another service, loosing images that don't exist anywhere else.

I wrote a targeted scraper for all of a user's photos. Good enough for the couple of users you care about. https://github.com/TheLQ/flikr-scraper
