Everytime I try create a map and import photos from my flickr account, it says "user not found". I know my username, just used it by storymap cannot find it. I am able to use google, but flickr not working. Is there something I have to enable on my flickr account first?

I think I needed to change  the Hide your profile from public searches to: No

I had that set to yes, which I guess keeps storymap from seeing my account. It worked this time, now I have to figure out why storymap is not seeing my geotags which are showing in flickr and were originally imported. I see them in my view, but if I search when I'm not logged in they are not showing.

Ok - I think I solved the next issue. Flickr has a separate geoprivacy setting for the each album. - man they don't make it easy. I guess now that I have this all as my default setting, I shouldn't have to set this for each album- I hope. Thanks for everyone's help.
