    So only recently put some pics up on flickr and now Oath have taken over and so what does it mean? I have pics in Onedrive (nearly full) and thought sure why not in flickr loads of space - but there is always a price - just dont know what yet. Any opinions?

    Another question on Flickr...

    I tried to set up an account, would like it to be anonymous in terms of what's visible and in Google searches (not putting anything strange on there!).

    I created account with a random enough screen name or user name but I had to give me real name and email etc.. After I opened the account I changed visible information about me to friends and family (don't know what that means in practice) but my full name still seemed to be visible.

    Am I doing something stupid? Cam anyone give me any few tips on setting up a Flickr (or alternative) photo account where I can put a few photos up without my personal details being identifiable??

    Thanks!

    I would think its because flickr is linked to your yahoo account, so its displaying your yahoo name ?
    IF you want total privacy open a new yahoo account.
