Flickr/Yahoo just added Facebook Connect and Google OAuth support to their sign-in, this is great, coz now I no longer needs a Yahoo! account to use Flickr. (I assume you all loathe Yahoo! as much as I do right?)
Here’s how to change your Flickr account from your Yahoo! ID to your Google or Facebook account:
- sign into Flickr with your Yahoo! account if you’re not already logged in
- go to http://www.flickr.com/account/transfer/
- hit “use existing Yahoo! ID”:
- Hit “sign in as a different user”:
- Choose Google, or Facebook (if you must):
- signin and authorize your Google or Google Apps email and password, or if you chose Facebook, you probably will see a familiar oauth authorization window requesting some permissions
- Click the “Okay, do it” button:
