DailyAlbum - Your DA albums and Flickr

Exchange now your images between Flickr and DailyAlbum.

Why is there actually a need for such a feature?

While Flickr is great for all its community features DA provides better tools for managing your images locally.

Some people also might just wish to migrate from one of the two systems to the other.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Each user has an additional button for the Gallery2Flickr configuration on the personal account page.

Once selected you will be able to generate a special link to flickr. When following this link you will be required to log into flickr and give access to the Gallery2Flickr tool.

Once you did that you will be able to save the authentication data. From now on you have full read/write access to your own flickr account. No other user within dailyalbum will be able to access this authentication data.

In case you have problems with the authentication problems ("frob does not validate") you should try to use the button "Delete old credentials" and try the authentication process again.

Usage

After completing the authentication procedure you should have two new buttons in the menu on the left when you are visiting an album.

In addition the same links should be available from the drop down menu below an album.

Import

The import page will show you which album you selected for the image import.

You have several options to select from:

You can switch to the "search" page
You can switch the user to download images from. You need to specify the flickr user name here. If the profile mentioned below continues to show your own profile name, this means that the search returned no valid user.
You can import/update a full set or images from a set.

Import set

"Import set" will immediately import the full set you selected into the currently selected album mentioned at the top of the page.

Update set

"Update set" will allow you to synchronize a set you previously imported. If you did not import the set before, it will be downloaded completely.

Import images from a set

Here you can select single images to import from your sets into the current album.

Import from search

The search page allows you to import images from a flickr search. Only some of the flickr search options are currently available in Gallery2Flickr. You will be able to import single images, pages of the search result or the full search result.
