I'm going to delete my Yahoo! account. What happens to my Flickr photos?

If you sign in to Flickr with a Yahoo! ID and you then delete your Yahoo! account, you will not be able to sign in to your Flickr account. In the future, this will delete your Flickr account as well, including all of your photos, but currently your Flickr account must be deleted separately.

If you want to keep using your Flickr account, make sure to switch your Flickr account over to a different Yahoo! ID first. You can switch Yahoo! IDs from the "Your Account" page: Use a different Yahoo! ID for this Flickr account.

Note:

If you have logging in through Facebook or Google setup the switching link is not available.

It doesn't seem to 'remember me' each time. What's up with that?

To protect your Yahoo! ID from misuse, Yahoo! automatically signs you off after a certain number of hours. You can modify this preference in your Yahoo! preferences.
