using flickr images in your blog

Following on from my previous post about the groovy lightbox 2 script - which you can use to display enlarged images in a snazzy way - I now offer you a tip on integrating it with your Flickr images.

For those who may not have heard of it, Flickr is a popular ’social’ photo sharing website, that offers some great tools for managing and sharing your photos and other images online.

The Creative Coast blogs run on a blogging system called Wordpress, which is possibly the most popular piece of blogging software. What this means is that it is possible to take advantage of extra features that are offered by WordPress ‘plugins’ (useful add-on programs).

The WordPress plug-in, WordPress Flickr Manager (WFM), has just been updated to a new version (just yesterday) which now has Lightbox 2 support.

So all that remain is to install the  WFM and test it out.  Hopefully, you will soon see it in action on this blog.
