The proportion of crap isn't related to whether an account is called 'pro' or not - being badged 'pro' is just something that's bought, it's not curated in any way. Tom, Dick and Mavis can be a 'pro' on Flickr.
.... Exactly! I know someone who has the 'Pro' status on Flickr and who frequently uploads what looks like his whole camera card contents without any culling and the standard of his photography is all very low indeed. He just occasionally captures a very good photo. He shoots on Nikon D-SLR and so his image quality is usually ok but.
This doesn't really matter because I don't have to view his Flickr pages but I know him personally and I get curious and hopeful he might improve but I'm not holding my breath.
I used to think that the 'Pro' status on Flickr meant you were a working professional but clearly that's not the case.
