Slickr Flickr WordPress PlugIn Integrates Blogging and Photo Tagging

A friend of mine developed a brilliant new WordPress Plug-in called Slickr Flickr. Catchy name and useful too. Here is an abbreviated run down on how to use this plugin:

The Flickr show is inserted into a post or a widget using the slickr-flickr short code

For example to show my pictures from Flickr that have been tagged with "bahamas" I would use : [slickr-flickr tag="bahamas"]

The Slickr Flickr Attributes (Parameters) are

* tag – identifies what photos to display
* id – the Flickr ID of the user
* group – set to 'y' if the Flickr id belongs to a group and not a user (default is n)
* items – maximum number photos to display in the gallery or slideshow (default is 20)
* type – gallery or slideshow (default is gallery)
* orientation – landscape or portrait (default is landscape)
* size – small, medium, large or original (default is medium) – for best results only use large or originals with galleries
* captions – whether captions are on or off (default is on)
* delay – delay in seconds between each image in the slide show (default is 5)
* start – number of the first slide or 'random' for a random start (default is 1)
