Default Flickr Help

I signed up for a Flickr account and I got the email to confirm my email address. The problem is that it is stuck in a loop and it keeps telling me I need to confirm my email address. I have done it several times and I get the same results. When I do confirm it tells me the email address is already confirmed. I have deleted my cookies and cache several times to no avail. I can't get to Flickr help or forums because the confirm page always pops up.Can anybody offer any help.

The site is probably just having some hiccups. If I were you, I'd wait a while and see if the issue clears up on its own.

What operating system and web browser are you using? If waiting a bit doesn't work, you could try a different web browser to visit the site.

It must have been a glitch as Daisie suggested. I tried it again this morning and it worked fine. I tried it both in Firefox and IE and had got the same results. I was just impatient as I was wanting to post some shots last night and things were just not working for me. Thanks for all the help. I love this site and the info I have got from here has just been great. What is funny is I get the email with all the tips and read the site but just now signed up to participate in the forums. I look forward to becoming friends with many of you.
