FAQ: What to do with your Yahoo photos

June 15th, 2007 by LinuxChick

It’s time to find a new home for the more than 2 billion pictures stored on Yahoo Photos.

Even though the Internet company just refurbished Yahoo Photos with a glitzy new interface, it’s shutting down the site beginning September 20.

The move shouldn’t come as a surprise, given Yahoo’s 2005 acquisition of photo-sharing powerhouse Flickr. But it does mean that millions of members will have to take action in the coming months if they want to preserve the pictures stored at the site–and that means things could get complicated.

Yahoo just fired up tools to let customers move their photos elsewhere, and CNET News.com has compiled some questions and answers to help users of Yahoo Photos understand the situation and make the right choices.

All I have to say is, “Yahoo had better come up with a way for me to download all my photos at once!” I’m really not keen on getting 300 pictures, one at a time!!
