Flickr Badge

| | Comments (3) |

Flickr is a site that allows you to store and share photos. It was acquired by Yahoo. You can create multiple albums. There is a neat way to create a "Flickr Badge" to put on another website that leads to one of your photo albums:

This is a Flickr badge showing public photos from fishback. Make your own badge here.

Say what? How do you do this?

If you want to share photos on the web, you can use Flickr.com. The Flickr badge above is simply a little tool they give you to point people to your shared photos. Since Flickr is owned by Yahoo you can log in using your Yahoo i.d.

Steps:
1. Go to www.Flickr.com
2. Create a new account using your Yahoo id if you have one. Otherwise make up a new id. Use a nickname of some kind.
3. Upload some photos.
4. Under Account look for the set your URL so you can make one that is easy to share. I just did this with:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/tedozark
5. If you are really feeling geeky, look for the Flckr Badge link and let it walk you through making a bunch of web code. You can copy and paste the web code on your own blog like I did above. But I can help you with step 5 if you do 1 through 4.
