5. Review Uploading Photos: You will need to get a card reader/or use your phone cord from the teacher or upload directly to the Flickr App

  • Get a card reader from the teacher( there is not enough for everyone so you will need to share.)
  • Insert the card into the card reader and then plug into the usb port 
  • Click on the drive( usually the c drive) on the left hand side, and then upload photos or copy/paste your images either on the M drive. Make sure you create a new folder and call it HEADSHOTS. This will be important so you keep all of your photos organized.
  • Once you have edited them in Photoshop, upload to Flickr. Put into an album called Headshots
  • If uploading directly to Flickr from your phone, use a photo app to edit photos before uploading to Flickr
