Can I invite friends to view my private photos on Flickr?
Flickr allows users to share private photos with friends, but there are specific steps to follow to ensure that this sharing is done correctly. When setting photos to private, a user has the option to share them with specific individuals. To accomplish this, the user should first navigate to their privacy settings and ensure that they add their friends to the appropriate list. Once friends are added, the user can select individual photos or albums and adjust the sharing settings accordingly.
The sharing options may include selecting specific friends from a list or creating a group of contacts that have permission to view the private content. It is advisable for users to review their privacy settings and sharing permissions periodically to maintain control over who can access their photos. For more detailed guidance on managing privacy settings and inviting friends, users may refer to the support documentation available on the Flickr website.
