Send my photos to my friends?

• I want to send flickr albums to my friends and family. I pasted the link into an email but they can't see it. Instead they reach a baffling Flickr/Yahoo page. They don't want ...show more

• Answer:

  Go to the album which you want to share. Open it and look for the box with the arrow coming out of it over on the right side of the page. When you click on that, it will say "share this via..." and you will have choices. If you click on the e-mail choice, you will get a screen in which you can insert your friend's e-mail address. Then you can write a short note. If your pictures are not public and are restricted to friends or family, be sure to click on those boxes at the bottom or the person will not be able to see your pictures. Once you click on those friends/family boxes, some pictures will show up on the left which tells you that the person to whom you are sending the e-mail will be able to see your photos. I do this all of the time. It works well. I don't want any one to have to register either. They do need to use the e-mail sent from Flickr to get into the pictures though. I sometimes send a regular e-mail first letting them know to expect one from Flickr. Once in a while the Flickr e-mail goes into their spam folder, so if they don't get the Flickr e-mail, they might want to check the spam folder.
