So I found the rest of my pictures. If I go back through old threads here and get into my flickr account through them, all the pictures are there. If I just log in on the regular flickr homepage, it's only 8 pictures. Both say that I am logged in as the same person, but the front page where it says hello in multiple languages is showing two different names. WIERD. I will be contacting support, I'm just happy I didn't lose all my pictures!!
