Ask SSM: Connecting to FLICKR with your Silver Street Media account

Dear
Silver Street
Media,
I have all my photos on FLICKR.  Do I have download them all and then upload them to Silver Street Media in order to make my photo book?
-Confused, Athens Georgia.

Hey Confused,
Great question and we’re happy you asked!  YOU DO NOT HAVE TO download and upload at all.  You can actually connect your Silver Street Media account with your FLICKR!  It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3!

1.  Sign in to Silver Street Media by clicking on MANAGE YOUR PHOTOS.
2.  Once there all of your uploaded photos will be there.  Notice there are a couple tabs up above the photos.  One of them is STOCK PHOTOS.  Another is FACEBOOK.  The next one is FLICKR.  Click on that tab.
3.  Flickr will open in another window and then ask you to sign in to give Silver Street Media access to your account. 
4.  Once you sign in, your photos should then appear where the other photos were before.  If you have many SETS in FLICKR you can find them by looking to the left side of the photos and that will show you all your sets that you have on FLICKR.

Go ahead and use those photos in your awesome new photobook!

Are you a FLICKR fan?  How many photos do you have on there?
