Hello Botz Family!
I hope you have all recovered after an epic 4th of July. As you know, we've been making some changes around these parts that I wanted to fill you in on. We've decided to create a Flickr account where people can upload and download pictures from the cabin. We chose Flickr because it gives us so much storage space, because let's face it, our family takes a lot of photos. What's more is that it lets you download the full resolution version of the photos, and you can order prints directly from the website. Handy dandy!
Since I myself wasn't too familiar with Flickr prior to this, I thought it would be helpful to create a little tutorial showing you all how you can both upload and download pictures from Flickr. Too see the tutorial on how to download pictures, click here.
To Upload Photos:
If at any time, the images below are too small for you to see, you can click on them to make them bigger.
1. Log in to Flickr using the username and website emailed to you. Click here to be brought to the log in. When you first log in, you should be brought to this screen below. If you aren't, click "YOU" in the upper left hand corner, and then select "PHOTOSTREAM." That will bring you to a page that looks like this (although the pictures may be different if new ones have been uploaded).

2. At the top of the screen, you should see the word "UPLOAD." Click it. It will bring you to a screen that looks like this:
3. Click on the "CHOOSE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS" button, and a window should pop up that allows you to select photos from your computer. Select the pictures you wish to upload, and click "open" or "okay."
4. The photos you uploaded should now be selected. On the left side of the screen half way down, click on the words "ADD TO SETS." This will allow you to choose what set you want to add your pictures to (think of them as photo albums).
5. Another window will pop up that will allow you to select which set you want to add the photos too. At this time, we only have one set (or album), but there will be more to choose from in the future.
6. Once you've selected the set, you should see a little green checkmark to the right of the set. Click the "DONE" button.
7. Once you have added the set, click on the blue button in the upper right hand corner that says "UPLOAD # PHOTOS."
8. Click the blue button that says "UPLOAD TO PHOTOSTREAM" and then wait as the photos upload. And then, you're done!
Once you have uploaded all of your pictures, you can scroll through other's pictures and download or print any pictures you want. To learn how to download or print pictures, click here.
