Add or remove photos in Flickr groups

Updated

Groups are a great way to share your work with others, connect over common interests, and increase your visibility on Flickr. You can add your own photos to a group’s photo pool or remove them at any time.

Things to keep in mind

  • Group limits:
    • Pro members can add each photo to up to 60 groups.
    • Free members can add each photo to up to 30 groups.
    • This limit applies to each photo individually, not your entire account.
  • Group rules: Some groups enforce posting limits or restrict certain content types. Check the group’s Overview tab for details.
  • Visibility in groups: Adding a non-public photo to a group makes it visible to all group members (who can tag it, or leave a comment, even if commenting is disabled in your account settings).
