First time tonight I've had the following block pop up appear on Flickr "You must select YES or NO for each category before submitting choices".

Does anyone know what it's all about, answered it or ignored it at all?

Thanks Dave, I'll have a read of that.

I read all through the link you kindly added Dave, but I'm still unclear as to which boxes I should be ticking. If I click on "Reject All", they'll probably scrap my account and I can't really see what the differences are in "Accept All" and "Save and Exit".

I've seen the same thing today.
It's been distressing common on some other websites, where I seem to have to redo my settings on at least a monthly basis.
With Flickr it showed most were disabled so I just saved as is. In many cases I've found such pop ups show the settings I agreed to previously.
If they don't I usually just end up rejecting all (even where this takes longer than accepting all).

The best place to get advice on this will be the Flickr Help Forum. It's a hot topic at the moment.

Thanks for the reply. Is it as simple as Googling Flickr Help Forum? Never been on that one before.

Update: I found the Flickr Help Forum but couldn't get on there due to the pop-up blocking me. I clicked on Reject All, read most of the posts, which make great points.

Now, when I try to get back on Flickr, all I'm getting is the Bad Panda picture. Hopefully it's just a minor problem at their end and they've not blocked my account.
