If you are signed up for Flickr, you should be getting an email explaining what will happen to any images you have there. Got mine yesterday, didn't even remember signing up... rolleyes.gif
THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF COUNTRIES
Those that use metric = #1 Measurement system
And the United States = The Banana system
CAUTION! Childhood vaccinations cause adults! :yes:

I saw my mail this morning. I am now researching how to meld my Flickr photos with my SmugMug photos.

Not sure what you need to do unless you do not want your Flickr images to go to SmugMug. I haven't even checked to see if I even have anything at Flickr... I don't have any password data in 1Password, anyway. dntknw.gif I do have a "Welcome to Flickr" email from Jan 2013. It appears I used a "Yahoo! ID" to sign up! eek2.gif They say there is some "unusual activity" in my account. If they were connected to Yahoo! I can certainly understand that! laughhard.gif

I didn't think to look in my SPAM folder, which holds just about anything from Yahoo!! (Do I have to use two exclamation points when exclaiming about Yahoo!? dntknw.gif) I found emails they had sent when complaining about "unusual activity" in my account. They included a secret code that was required to enter before I could access my seven images and delete them. Deleting/canceling the Yahoo! account was a bit more difficult, of course. First you have to search the forums to find the hidden link...

I think I had Flickr, but moved my photos to Google and pbase.com, and other storage places.
I will look at what Ive got tomorrow, thanks for the warning.
