My Flickr account has not bee the most used site for hosting images on I'll admit. I used to use my Google mail account to log on but it's not avalible now. Anyone know how to recover access. Ive tried to recover my id and password and have succeeded in making three new Yahoo accounts! Great!
Any Ideas?

They sent out a series of requests months ago to create a new Yahoo account, have you got one of those emails in your archive ? I can't recall exactly but I think they had a link to click on

Good luck. I lost several non-paid flickr accounts due to them disabling the associated Yahoo accounts after six months without a login. The flickr accounts still exist, but it seems there's now no way to log in to them and nowhere to send password reset emails. Well done Yahoo, that caused me to stop paying for the flickr pro account I had.

In typical yahoo fashion… that support link won't load.

The gradual destruction of Flickr is saddening and maddening,
