Hi Guys,

I am using upload module as well as emfield module but I am not being able to integrate them to solve my purpose. I would like to upload all the images that users upload to my site into my [or optionally their own flickr accounts]. The simple reason behind this is that i do not have a dedicated image server which means i would ideally want every image to be served from my flickr account.

Also, optionally the user may want to upload this directly to his flickr account [which is not an issue for me, coz my lookout is to serve these images from flickr and not my own site].

There might be a straightforward approach for the same, but i could not find that out. If anyone has already faced the same problem, or knows the solution to this, please let me know.

Regards,
Mukesh Agarwal

Did you had a look

Did you had a look at

http://drupal.org/project/flickr

This one talks about serving flickr photos in Drupal, which I think you have solved... but they are using flickr API, which might be useful

or

http://www.lullabot.com/articles/how_to_build_flickr_in_drupal - i guess this article is more about building flickr like functionality using CCK & views... might be useful

Found solution to videos

Hi Guys,

I found a solution for a similar problem with videos. The videos directly get stored in youtube (site-wide account) and then later they get served from youtube. This saves the bandwidth of my site.

However, a similar solution for images in flickr or imageshack does not exist. If anyone does find something, please let me know.

Hi Mukesh,

I have the exact same requirement (upload images to the flickr account as well as my drupal db). Did you find a solution to this? Please could you help us with an alternative.
