What a pain their "Facebook wannabe" format is!
My complaint is probably age-related...I'm beginning to dislike change.
But if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Anybody else find it awkward?

You do realize you get a terabyte of strorage for free?

Yeah, that part's obviously good.
I've had a Pro account for years.
But I can't figure out how to get the photos on here...where's the HTML/BB code stuff?
Will keep looking.

Right clicking used to work.
Played with it a bit.
Go into Photostream (and forget that horrible new front page), and click the icon that looks like an arrow coming out of a white box.
That leads to the HTML / BB code page.
Sheesh...trying that:

OK it worked.
They hid the Actions thingy. Turns out it's now the three dots. Stoooooopid changes.
They're turning into a FB wannabe.

I forgot to ask what you use ( IE, chrome, Firefox etc). My method was for chrome... Glad you got it to work 😀

Jesse,
I've got FF.
There are a lot of really unhappy posters/members over at the Flickr Help forum. 😕

Took me a while to notice that I could use the old format "basic uploader" Now to see if I can get up to speed like the rest of you to post pics directly on PN.

I hate the new format too. It was just fine before.

John, you'll like the new uploader better.
I've been using it for about a year or so, and it's fast as lightning.
The basic was just too slow for me.
Michael,
Yeah, what's that old saying about "if it ain't broken...." 😆 😆
Discovered something that's helpful for me...from the main page (which we all hate), or from Photostream (sorry I can't remember), select EDIT in the navbar.
PRESTO up comes your photostream in a familiar format, what we're used to seeing.
Remember, too, that the 3 DOTS (icon) is where they hide ACTIONS (and isn't THAT stooooopid?)
and to SHARE your photo (embed in PN), click on the arrow coming out of the white frame/box.
That sound was my hair turning more gray...sheesh.
Or me swearing.
This new Flickr launch is akin to getting a new car, but nobody gives you the keys to it and you have to break a window to climb in. 😆
