Boy long thread.

Now about how to get your images to Flickr from iPhoto.

Here's how you do it:

Transfer all the pics you took from the camera to iPhoto.
Holding down the Apple key click on each photo you want to upload to the web site where you store them.
Click on the Share menu and choose Export, at the bottom.
Click on the Scale Images no larger than button.
Input 432 in the width space (72 dpi by 6")
Click on the Use Filename button.
Click on Desktop when the directory opens. Click on the New Folder button at the bottom on the Left of the directory. Call the new folder whatever you like.
Click on OK and Create and wait for iPhoto to export the adjusted images to the folder you made on the Desktop.
Upload the images to your website by whatever method they offer from the folder on the Desktop.
