Flickr Instructions

Flickr.com is owned and operated by Yahoo.com. You will need an account with Yahoo! in order to use Flickr.

  • If you have a Yahoo! account, then click this link to use it as your login for Flickr.
  • If you do not have a Yahoo! account, then click this link to create one. Then click this link to use your new account as your login for Flickr.

Once you are logged into Flickr, navigate to the Ron Deaton Flickr Group. You will see a screen that looks like the picture below:

Ron Deaton Flickr Group Page

 

Note the link towards the top right of the page that reads “Join this group?” Click on that link to join the Ron Deaton Flickr Group.

 

Next, you will want to upload photos to your Flickr account. Photos are not directly loaded to the Flickr Group. Instead the photos are shared (Flickr calls it pooled) with the group. Thus, the photos reside in individual user accounts, but the users voluntarily share (pool) certain photos with the group.

 

To begin adding photos to your Flickr account go to the Flickr Upload Tool.

 

Once you have some photos of Ron uploaded to your account, click on the Flickr Organize Tool to add them to the Ron Deaton Group. Simply drag the photos you want to add to the group into the “batch edit area” in the middle of the screen. Then click on the “Add to Group” button along the top horizontal menu. A pop-up window will appear. Select the “Ron Deaton” group in the list.
