Using the latest in web technology, such as Ajax, 2Pad allows you to privately share your media from your personal gallery. Simply start by sending your media via email to 2pad@2pad.com and 2Pad automatically creates your personal gallery. We would love you to test it out and send us feedback! We're always looking to improve our product for the masses! Thanks!!

For example, compare http://flickr.com/photos/hlehto/tags/hysse/ and http://flickr.com/photos/hlehto/tags/hysse/ - my new pictures are invisible in the generic search and visible in my personal search.

I wrote to Flickr support, but have not yet got an answer.
