Flickr encourages square format

The squarer the format, the larger the total area of photograph displayed in Flickr; this is especially important when only the Small size of photos is displayed. The tinier the photo, the less the impact, I find; thus, there is pressure towards the square format there (as there is anywhere that photos are fitted into a square bounding box).

I thus find myself looking for the square crop in the viewfinder and especially during editing. Moreover, I'm liking the square crop.

Anyone else?
