For my travels I thought I better ditch Photobucket and get back to basics with Flickr. However, I can't seem to register for an account!

Each time I try to sign in with my yahoo ID I get a "Redirect loop". If I delete my cookies I can get back onto FlickR but when I repeat the process it breaks all over again.

Google shows others have had the same problem but there are no solutions... clue anyone?

slack--line back from Malham yet?

Have you tried signing up using a different browser?

Doing a quick google suggests it may be malware so do the usual scans.

I've tried using i.e tab... i'll try IE and then do a spybot.

Hmmm I've tried the same on my folks desktop and that doesn't work either. Same error.

Still. Running an adware search isn't a bad thing.

Get somebody else (who isn't cursed with the luck of the damned) to sign up on your behalf; then try using that login.

still useless as I won't be able to log in to that. If I disable cookies it tells me my reg has been successful but that it can't log me in as cookies aren't enabled!

Hmm, not sure.

If you've already got a Yahoo account you could try logging into that first, and then see if there is a way to set up a flickr account from there perhaps?

Try through a proxy?

this is what I did with a bit of cookie disabling/enabling thrown in which seemed to work.
Cheers.
