Flickr has me locked out of my account!

Flickr refuses my login, so I'm locked out! Thank You Flickr (Yahoo) , bunch of yahoos

You have to make a Yahoo account to use it now - The Facebook and Google logins were disabled....... There was a warning when you log in, but if you don't do it very often then you could have missed it!

Those... BASTARDS!

Did you create a Yahoo account, or is that too much work to get a TB of free space ?

Ya got me there!

Flickr has been Yahoo for quite some time now. I figured you had to have a Yahoo acct all along, sounds like that is not the case.
Flickr is the ONLY thing I use under Yahoo services

About a week ago, Flickr stopped allowing it's users to login with facebook or/and google accounts. Get a yahoo email address and regain access to your flickr account - as simple as that.

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

Thanks for everyone's help. I have a flickr account but have always used the google login. I now know NOT to use that!

and there I was - about to ask how Flickr works.
Amazing.
Now I know I get 1TB of space using my Yahoo (seldom used) account.
Awesome - so pleased they locked you out just long enough for me to find out what I needed to know.
