tsnLAN 7.0 Pics and Flickr
Posted: 07 Jan 2007, 03:12
As you'll notice at the bottom of the MySpot page, there is a new module - the photostream of the flickr group for the-spot.net.
I've been using flickr to keep my photos since the start of the year, and the more I use it, the more I'm liking it...simply because I don't have to do the coding work behind the album, but I can still incorporate it into my pages.
To get your photos to show up in that window at the bottom, you need a flickr account (if you have a yahoo screenname, then you're already taken care of). Log into flickr.com with your yahoo name, and then go to http://www.flickr.com/groups/tsn/ and see if you can join the group. If you can't then go to my page and add me as a Contact, and I will add you into the group. In the meantime, you'll need to load your photos to your flickr.com account, so you can move them to the group.
Once you've been added to my contact list, you'll also be able to start adding your photos to the tsn group by going to the ORGANIZE link at the top of your home page, and then dragging your pics you want to add to the gray area, and clicking on the "Send to Group" button above the pictures.
Then they're added. It's quite simple. And there are tools to let you add more than one pic at a time. I use the FotoFox add-on for Firefox (google it), and I drag all the pictures in a directory to the FotoFox window, and click upload, and they load. I'd then go to my flickr account, pick out which ones I want to put in the TSN group and drag them to the picture area, and click Send to Group. Easy-Breezy.
