Flickr Widget Tips

So you have your photos saved on the Flickr web site and you want to view them via the "Flickr Widget".

This works on "tags"...but how do you make only your photos appear?

You select a tag name that nobody else has used.

Go to you Flickr home page select the photos you want, and give them a "tag" name that is unique..(there are instruction to add tags on the site FAQs).

Make sure that you can fit them all on the screen size of your mobile (my E90 is 9..smaller displays are probably 6).
If you want more you need to give another "tag" name" I use something like "my12party". or "myuglymug"
Be creative..but simple enough to remember.

Having done that open widsets on your mobile..go to the Flickr widget, select/highlight but dont open it.
Then...options..
Widget/settings/tag identifier....and edit in your tag name to that what you chose on the Flickr web site.

If you want to look at another set of your photos edit again to the tag name of that set.
And so on for as many sets as you want.
