Quilting Heidi 1,398 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I know lots of you are having trouble posting pictures and I do this from a completely selfish purpose, I love to see everybody's work and with the restrictions of the website I don't think we're seeing as much sharing. Until that gets resolved I thought I'd do up a tutorial of how to post pictures using Flickr. I'm finding Flickr to be a good option. You can create albums and mark them private if you want to. If you run out of space it is very reasonably priced to upgrade. I made a PDF file. Here you go. jmcclannan 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WestieMom 29 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Thank you, Heidi! You're the best!!! Is Flickr free until you reach a certain number of photos? I tried looking on their site and couldn't really find the answer I was looking for. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quilting Heidi 1,398 Posted October 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Carol you are limited to a certain amount of space per month, I can't remember how much but I haven't come close yet. I figure when I do I'll upgrade. I think it is something like $6.95 per quarter to upgrade so I think $32 a year for it would be worth it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WestieMom 29 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 That's really not too expensive considering that you can share your photos and know they're there if you need them. I like how Flickr allows you to create folders and then assign different access to each,,,if I'm understanding what I read. Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

To start a new topic go to the forum section you want to be in and at the top right just above the first thread showing there should be a box that says, Start a new topic.

Dustee 5 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Heidi, You are great! Thanks for sharing so much of your wisdom. You have taught me a lot. I am having problems getting a Flickr account opened up, but I will keep trying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quilting Heidi 1,398 Posted October 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Dustee, You're welcome. I posted under Libby's post to you about getting your correct log on info from Flickr. There should be a button to click if you have forgotten your user name or password. If not try to set up a new one and when they see your email is already registered you'll have the chance then to get your info emailed to you. Guess how I know?

CindyT 394 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Heidi, thank you for posting this. I think you're right that some of us are holding back (me included) in posting pictures because of the forum restrictions. I'll be checking into getting a flickr account now.

Quilting Grammy 54 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Heidi, thank you for posting this. I think you're right that some of us are holding back (me included) in posting pictures because of the forum restrictions. I'll be checking into getting a flickr account now. Same goes for me I have several pics. I would love to share of the last 2 quilts that I just finished and can't decide which ones to post. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joy 16 Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Hi Heidi You will have to give me better directions to start new topic as all I have is follow this and reply to this Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quilting Heidi 1,398 Posted October 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Joy, OK let me see if I can help. 1st go to the section of the forum that you want to post to such as Chat about Anything, Quilt Pictures, Patterns and Inspirations, click on the one you want. At the top right hand corner, just above the first thread, you will see a button that says Start New Topic. Click on the Start New Topic and go to town. I hope that is what you were looking for.

Sharond 107 Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Heidi, Do you think this would work with Picassa? That is what I have been using for years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quilting Heidi 1,398 Posted October 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Sharon if picasa allows you to share the picture it should work. You have to find out if you can post to a forum or copy the URL to the forum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
