Right, this is really doing my nut in, so I need some advice.

I have a Flickr account, which I recently had to migrate form my old @btinternet email address to a new @yahoo email address. No problem, this all went ok, and I can now sign in, see all my photos, upload, etc.

What I can't do is share a set. This is annoying, as this is was a good method of dumping a load of photos in one place, grabbing the URL, and then mailing it to people, or pasting in places like the classifieds, so everyone else could just click the link, and then be taken to the page to view all the photos.

Except, this now doesn't work, and requires you to now sign in to see the page, which is useless if you don't have a Flickr account.

Some of my sets I can grab the link and paste it and it works, but some sets I can't, and I don't know why, like this one

http://www.flickr.com/photos/trailofdestruction/sets/72157641948036185/

Doesn't work, unless you're signed in. Argggghhhh!!!

How the holy cow do I get round this problem ?

Or, if I can't tell where is better to host photos. (either Mac or PC ?)

This set falls outside your current SafeSearch filter.
You can click through to see the contents if you want.

erm 😕

Posting naughty pics?

Pfft..I wish it was something naughty.

Nope, just pictures of stuff I'm trying to sell on the Classifieds.

All the filters are turned off as far as I'm aware, but looking through some of the faqs on the site, it appears I may not be able to turn them off completely, as apparently all the filters are turned on by default if you are signed out, which is why I keep getting that error message. It just keeps telling me I need to be signed in in order to see this content. Which is stupid.

I just want people to be able to see the content without being signed in, and I have no idea how to do that.

Graaaahhhh!!! 😡

Typical for a new acct or first uploads to an account. I have flagged them as incorrectly tagged for you. The bots should look at them soon and realise they are perfectly safe and re-categorize them. The more people who flag them as incorrectly tagged the faster this will take place and the sooner they will be visible to none members.
