Printing photos from Flickr

[greenforme]

Hi
I've very recently lost by lovely brother, who was a keen photographer and used Flickr. I often said how much I'd like to print some to frame (quite big). I'd really like to do this, but how do I? He used to talk about 'resolution' and 'pixels' and such like. Do I need to worry about such things?
Any advice would be great please x

Do you have access to his email address or Flickr account?

If not the only way you can really do it is to take a screen shot which will probably not be enough resolution. Flickr has the right click (to save an image) disabled so you won't get the option to save the photo.

The best thing I can suggest is contacting Flickr and seeing if they can help you access his photos so you can download the originals, other than that do a screenshot and upload it to a company like Photobox (I say them because i know they do a resolution check and tell you if it's suitable for the product you want to buy) and see what their app/website tells you about the suitability.

So sorry for your loss

Thank you... I have a link to his account and can see the photos but that's all. I'll try a screenshot

Thank you for replying

That's so kind of you, thank you.
As executor i hope they will give me access... worth a try.
