Revamped Pics Section

I’ve done a little work on my Pictures section. While the Flickr Development team still hasn’t added collections support to their API, I was able to pull a listing of tags for my photos.

Flickr API

Flickr opened up their service to the programming world with a publicly accessible API. As usual, I’m way behind the times and I’ve just discovered this feature.

I started using Flickr a few months back for photo hosting and I’ve been addicted ever since. So much in fact, that I haven’t bothered updating my own pictures page. The solution of course was to create a section on my website that connects to Flickr using their API. The first iteration of this page is located at http://mswebby.com/flickr/sets.php.

Unfortunately, Flickr’s API doesn’t include any functions for getting Collections of photos, just Sets. So my site is completely disorganized at the moment.
