How to Stop People from Downloading my Flickr Photos?

Flickr facilitates all its users with a set of features and tools. Using these settings Flickr allows you to control who can view the original version of your photos. Just select a setting — from "Only Me" to "Anyone." This setting applies to all your photos and is combined with your privacy settings.

People often confuse themselves with 'Creative Commons' license settings. They think applying a Creative Commons license to their photos will restrict others from downloading. Unfortunately, the originals can be downloaded by anyone. So, if you don't want to make the originals available, don't apply a Creative Commons license to your images.

You can install PicBackMan's Flickr Photo uploader for Mac from the website and start backing up photos and videos.

Quick Tip to ensure your videos never go missing
Videos are precious memories and all of us never want to ever lose them to hard disk crashes or missing drives. PicBackMan is the easiest and simplest way to keep your videos safely backed up in one or more online accounts. Simply download PicBackMan (it's free!), register your account, connect to your online store and tell PicBackMan where your videos are - PicBackMan does the rest, automatically. It bulk uploads all videos and keeps looking for new ones and uploads those too. You don't have to ever touch it.
