Download Hi Resolution Yahoo! Photos by Rohit Sud – Closing down of Yahoo Fotos, get your pics to Flickr

We’re sorry. Yahoo! Photos is closing on October 18, 2007 so we are no longer accepting new accounts or allowing users to upload photos if you don’t already have photos in your account. We’ve decided to focus all our efforts on Flickr – the award winning photo sharing community that has been called “completely addictive”. Why not head over to Flickr for a look?

Rohit Sud on www.smart-techie.com has a solution 

1. Login to your Yahoo Photo’s account and go to the album you want to download.
2. Go to View->Source and copy and paste the entire source at
3. Paste the source from the Yahoo album page below to get the high resolution version of your photos.

FAQs

* In case you don’t see the images, relogin to your yahoo account and paste the source again!
* We don’t store the photos on our server, we just generate the HTML page required by you to download the photos. You can always download your photos without the help of this tool!
* This might not work with Yahoo Photos Beta

Yahoo! Photos is closing on October 18, 2007. Flickr.com is in ! Transfer your photos before it’s too late

 Yahoo Photos is closing down! Yahoo! Photos is closing on October 18, 2007. Flickr is in ! Transfer your photos before it’s too late.

On the 16th June, 2007, Yahoo! Photos issued a press release stating that it would be terminating September 20, 2007 in order to focus their efforts on Flickr.

Yahoo! Photos has proposed a number of alternatives for customers who want to move their photos to other services.

What are my options if I want to keep my photos?

If you want to keep your photos (and we think most of you might), then you’ll need to go to http://closing.photos.yahoo.com to choose from a few options by September 20, 2007.

1. Move your photos: Select from among the photo sharing services offered (Flickr, Kodak Gallery, Shutterfly, Snapfish, and Photobucket) and they will move the photos for you. You’ll need to verify your Yahoo! account information and either create a new account or login with an existing account at that other service.

Note: You can only move your photos to 1 service!

2. Download: Go to each photo and select “Download” above the photo. Unfortunately we do not technically support the ability to download more than one photo at a time, but for many of you it won’t take much time to download your favorites.

3. Buy an archive CD (for users of the New Yahoo! Photos only): Select the archive CD option, verify your Yahoo! account information, and begin creating a CD of your photo collection, at the original uploaded resolution. Our partner Englaze will be offering discounted pricing of $6.95 for 700Mb of photos.

For those that are interested, it is possible to choose all three of these options. However, once you’ve moved to another service you’ll no longer be able to access your Yahoo! Photos account and thus you will no longer be able to download or buy an archive CD. If you are interested in choosing all three options, you must download or buy an archive CD before moving your photos to another service.

Several independent users have derived alternative solutions for migration of their photographs uploaded at Yahoo! Photos, namely: Download Hi Resolution Yahoo! Photos by Rohit Sud, Download Yahoo! Photos by Kent Brewster, and Yahoo! Photos Grabber by Yandao.com
