Perry,

I use Flickr, and it's a bit humbug.  I can't post pics from my phone anymore (they deleted that feature years ago), so I'll need to get to my office tomorrow to get you a detailed explanation.

Others more capable than I may be able to help you sooner.

Nobody is jumping in and I did offer my help, after all. I'd forgotten I have an old Flickr account, just checked so let's see if we can figure this out together.

First things first, you have to upload a pic from your computer to Flickr's servers. Looks like it goes like this:

1. Create a Flickr account (looks like it's still free up to a point)

2. Log in

3. At your main page, around the top right you should see a little symbol with a cloud and an arrow pointing up inside the cloud. Other services let you upload from just about anywhere, Flickr seems to be a bit particular and it took me a while to find the upload icon after all this time.

4. Press the icon and follow the prompts to upload a pic. you might want to create an album and call it "FSM" or something.

5. See how far you can get and we can move forward from there, how about that?

 If anyone else (maybe more current with Flickr) can help, do feel free to jump right in, please.

   Well we are trying to get this figured out. With what you have posted so far Greg I'm sure we can do it. The issue that comes up which causes me to stop short is the speed, I could take a Polaroid, the whole roll, go to KMart to have it developed, mail hard copies to anybody interested, AND get replies before my laptop boots up.

     I have very little patience for something that is instantanous everywhere else in the free world.

   Ok so we got this far. Now it looks like I need to learn to format for size. Patience and faster internet speed.

     Will be practicing more VERY soon.

     Still troubkeshooting our unternet speed problem, may be the driver on the laptop??? Anyway that is in work.

     Off topic sidebar it is good to see you here Tim, miss your wit. Hope you are well.
