Upload from Lightroom to Flickr
June 8th, 2007If you fit into the following criteria, this post is for you.
- a fan of Adobe’s Lightroom
- you happen to be a Flickr user
- you haven’t seen the light and you’re using Windows
You might want to know how to actually upload directly from Lightroom and into Flickr.
Step 1
Locate the install directory for Flickr Uploadr, mine resides in
C:\Program Files\Flickr Uploadr
Step 2
Locate where Lightroom places its export actions.

At the bottom you should notice:

Now paste the Uploadr exe into that directory.
Next time you attempt to Export - you will have the option of choosing Flickr Uploadr [as you can see I already have], and voila!
Note
- You might want to save this as a preset, so you wouldn’t have to select Flickr Uploadr in the drop down all the time.
- Deselect ‘Put in Subfolder’ - so it would ONLY export to Flickr
- Best of all - all the tags that you already have, will be uploaded to Flickr, so don’t worry about adding them in the Uploadr [am getting sick of spelling it like that...]
