[Bahc] BAHC Flickr account

[Keith Mott]

Dear All,

I have created a Flickr account for the BAHC to allow people to upload
photos from events so everyone can see them. I have uploaded my photos from
the Trappers Loop Drive and I have created a collection (of albums) for
that Drive. Feel free to upload photos, create albums, add to collections,
etc.  I will keep an eye on the account to be sure that things are arranged
correctly. Here are some instructions.

Go to Flickr.com in a browser.  Log in using bonneville_ahc at yahoo.com.
 Password: member123

The home page is not particularly intuitive (in fact, I find it downright
annoying).  The top purple menu bar is pretty much useless, so just ignore
it.  The black menu bar below it labeled 'flickr' contains everything you
need.  Here are some instructions for uploading pictures and seeing what
others have uploaded.

To see what other people have uploaded you can either:

1. Mouseover "You" and select "Albums"
or
2. Mouseover "You" and select "Organize".  Then click on the "Albums and
Collections" tab.

The latter is slightly more useful in my opinion.

To upload:

   1. Click on "Upload" on the Home page or the PhotoStream page.
   2. Choose photos by dragging and dropping or by clicking on the webpage
   and choosing from the dialog box.
   3. Click "Upload X photos" in the upper right hand corner
   4. Click "Upload to Photostream" in the dialog box that appears.
   5. Your photos will now appear on the home page.
   6. To assign them to an album, mouseover "You", and select "Albums".
   7. Click on the "Add New Album" tile
   8. Drag your photos from the strip at the bottom of the page (holding
   shift allows you to select the first and last picture in a series; holding
   control allows you to multiple select individual pictures.
   9. Replace "new album' with an appropriate name.  It will be useful if
   you append your name to the album.
   10. Click "Save"
   11. This takes you to the "Albums & Collections" page, where you can see
   other albums and collections.  If there are other albums covering the same
   event, you can add them to an existing collection by dragging them onto the
   appropriate collection in the left panel.  You can also create a new
   collection by clicking on "Create a new: collection" above the left panel.
