I have been with Flickr approximately three years. Today I decided to upload some flicks and could not locate a clue as to how to go about it. I went to the Community and then entered my query and got the run around. Anyone have any idea as to how to upload photos on Flickr, Please? Yes, I do have an account with them and unfortunately with Yahoo! Also.

Thanks very much for any assistance offered.

There's a little cloud looking icon with a up-arrow in it on the top right of the flick.com homescreen when logged in. Click it to upload photos.

I've recently had the very same experience, however I managed to find this stupid cloud-with-an-arrow icon myself after several minutes of searches. This is what I call a user-unfriendly interface. Unfortunately many websites make their interfaces less intuitive these days.

I upload mine through Lightroom

Just drag and drop the picture from your PC to the camera roll page on Flickr.

When you drag the picture from your PC to the camera page on Flickr a message will pop up saying let go we'll take it from there.

The Flickr publication service in Lightroom works very well.

This... It works exceptionally well. Even allows you to make updates to you image whilst keeping all comments and likes etc. I wish everything worked so well.

It would help if they had installed "Upload" directly under the little cloud. I guess that would have been too easy?

Overall Flickr has improved over the past year

...with some glitches still evident. One of the best features is the editing option.....the little box with the pencil in it. Just simple editing tasks but they can be handy when you need to make some minor adjustments to an uploaded image.

Regards!

It is simple (for the most part):

https://www.flickr.com/photos/upload/ (drag and drop from Windows Explorer or equivalent)

-or-

https://www.flickr.com/photos/upload/basic (the old uploader)
