Uploading your pictures to a photo-sharing platform such as Flickr is a convenient way to share photos with friends, family or co-workers. You can share either single photos, slideshows or entire albums on Flickr by clicking the Share icon.
Connecting Social Networks to Your Account
If you plan on sharing some of your photos on Facebook, Twitter or Tumblr, visit the Sharing & Extending page to connect your social network account to Flickr. Connecting an account not only lets you share your photos on your Tumblr blog or Twitter feed by clicking a single button, it also allows Flickr to automatically share your new photo uploads to your Facebook Timeline.
