Ok, you need to join Flicker first, then join the astrometry group, which doesn't require any signing up, just search for the group and join. After that post a pic into the group pool. Wait approx 2 hours for the astrometric data to be linked to your pic. You will recieve a message describeing any NGC objects that are present in your pic and as you scroll your mouse over the image labels of the objects will appear. Once this is done just scroll down the page and click the link to world wide telescope. The WWT page will open, you may have to wait several min while it loads, once loaded WWT will scroll around to where your pic position is, and overlay the pic, all automatically.

Hope that helps
Jas
