To upload a single photo, copy the photo ID into the single Flickr photo ID field by copying the last string of numbers in the URL when you are on a webpage for a photo. You can upload all eligible images by pasting the ID number of a photoset into the Flickr photoset ID field to find the ID of a photoset, copy the string of numbers in the URL after albums/ when you are on the web page for that album.
