I have 2 flickr accounts and would like to consolidate them. Is that possible? If I can't actually combine then can I transfer photos from one account and add to another and then close out one account? Each account is under a different password and has different content. Don't ask me why I have two accounts- I think it was a forgotten password thing :)
PS- I have tried to contact Yahoo in the past and found it to be an impossible task to actually get hold of a real person.

I have a similar issue so I'll be watching for info too. Finding someone at Yahoo is worse than finding someone at Adobe.

I just went back on the Flickr account to the FAQ- and it appears that you can not consolidate accounts nor can you transfer photos from one account to the other. Nor can you transfer people following you. The best you can do is reload the photos to the secondary account from your computer and then delete the other account. When you delete your account the photos from that account are deleted as well. The photos I had on the earlier account are on a external hard drive and so I won't be reloading them. If anyone has any updated information to what I posted or if I am incorrect please let me know.
