I just checked that Flickr graph, and the ceiling is 70 million photos per month. I just checked, and Instagram boasts 70 million photos per day.[1] So while Flickr may be growing in, say, photos per month, its share overall, year-over-year is ... not good.

While it's true that sites like Smugmug cater even more toward serious use, I'm sure Flickr/Yahoo would have liked to have had a broader and more mainstream base.
