Block or unblock someone in Flickr

Flickr is all about inspiration & positive interactions. If another member is interfering with that experience for you, you can block them from adding comments, notes, or tags to your content and prevent them from contacting you through FlickrMail.

Once blocked, they also won't be able to add your photos to galleries or mark them as their Faves.
