How do I change the Flickr preview pics on my Y! 360 page?

I cannot seem to change the Flickr thumbnail pics on my Y! 360 page. I've uploaded new pics to Flickr but this doesn't seem to solve the problem. Can anyone help me?

How do I change the Flickr preview pics on my Y! 360 page?
This doesn't happen instantly - between Flickr and 360 there are often delays of days.





Please follow these instructions:


Your photostream always shows your most recently uploaded photos first. If you want to change the order, you can either add a new picture OR edit the posting dates for photos. On each photo page, you'll see an Additional Information section on the right that includes the date the photo was taken. Click the "edit" link to change the date the photo was taken or posted.





You can also use Flickr's their Organizr tool to change the order. See http://www.flickr.com/photos/organize .





For me, it takes one to two days for new pics to show up on Yahoo! 360. However, it is very important that all pics that you want to show have a status of PUBLIC in Flickr first. So, log into Flickr, and see if there's a little green square under each picture. If not, click on the square and change the privacy status.





If the above doesn't work in 3 days, make sure that you have the correct FLICKR ID listed in your 360 photos module. Click "Share Photos" in 360, scroll down to the Flickr section, and click on the "Change User" link to double-check.
Reply:Thanks for voting! However, you may need to add more pics if the above advice doesn't work. You can also contact Yahoo! 360 by clicking your beta feedback link, if your 360 isn't updating. Report It

Reply:here’s how to move your photos to Flickr:


NOTE: These are instructions for existing Yahoo! Photos users:


· Go to http://closing.photos.yahoo.com


· Click “Move my photos to Flickr” (or for international users, click the “Get Started” button)


· After you receive the confirmation email that your photos have been moved successfully, go to http://www.flickr.com and login with your Yahoo! ID
