[On second thought that might not be that much of a problem.] And sounds like all-or-nothing, too. Let LR do it its way or do it yourself. [Or maybe making changes outside LR wouldn't be a problem, either. At this point it doesn't seem critical to me that LR to know about changes made on Flickr. > I believe there's a way to delete a set you've published from Lr but leave > them on the service, however I'd have to do more research to figure out how > that works. That would be much better. [But then maybe you'd loose the ability to republish after you make changes on LR.] I'm not asking you to sort this out for me. I'm just thinking out loud. Do my own research and experimentation and ask for help when the issue remains unclear. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA eew...@bellsouth.net "The most important thing is the tee-shirt." - Samara Alnafdage -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
