Hey I got a strange mail saying Yahoo! photos is closing and will be supported till october some date only,so please move onto Flickr.That too,there is a direct link to transfer all your photos in Yahoo to Flickr.
I was surprised that nothing about this was posted here.I would like to know if some one else had same experience.

no legal problems ,only that you have to loginto Yahoo Photos and choose to 'move' all your photos or lose them . Just choose move and accept a license agreement tellin you smthin tht Flickr doesnt cm under Indian jurisdiction etc etc.

Yes. I believe it was posted here.
I had received this mail nearly 4 months ago. They had stopped allowing new accounts for photos and stopped new photo uploads since a long time.
