Transfering photos from Yahoo to Flickr

samira_cy says:

I have several albums in my yahoo photos, and now that I have discovered Flickr I would like to transfer those albums as sets into here. Is it possible? And if so, how? Also, what happens with the quality of the pictures? Will it change? Thanks

There is currently no way to do that, but we plan to make a way (and when we do, the quality will remain the same).

Any new news on this topic?

I'm brand-new to Flickr and signed up using my Yahoo! ID.

I imagine phase one included folding your flickr ID into your Yahoo! ID, and phase two is the actual physical migration of the infrastructure to Yahoo!

Am I correct in guessing that as soon as phase two happens the ability to move your photos from Yahoo! photos to Flickr isn't that far behind?

I signed up using my Yahoo acc. and I loaded a picture to flickr but it will not expand and remains at thumbnail size. I did get it in though through my yahoo photo album.

The question remains -- was there a facility to automagically import it from Yahoo? I have a lot of photos waiting there. Being able to import the photos from Yahoo and other photo services could be what gets me to shell out the $30 for the premium service.

Now they just need a Linux mass-uploader.
