In this movie, author Richard Harrington walks you through some posting strategies that you can use when posting to Flickr.
- A photo sharing community that's…been around a long time is Flickr.…Now it's changed hands and it's owned by Yahoo now,…and it's seen some substantial changes,…but Flickr communities are a great place…to share your photos, collaborate with others,…and get some feedback.…Let me show you how to post.…What you'll see is that Flickr…supports both photos and video.…Now I tend to use Flickr when I'm…collaborating with other photographers,…such as a photo walk, and I want to share some images.…What you do is click the upload button…and you can choose photos or video to upload…or drag them onto the screen.…
If you have multiple images you might…find it easiest to do this method.…You can select multiple pieces of content and drag and drop.…This does make it easy to do a batch upload.…You can decide to modify the titles of the content…if you want to make them more descriptive or do that later.…When you're ready click upload.…The videos will be optimized, usually to a lower data rate,…and the photos will be added to the page.…
