If you have any issues or comments please post them below or at the demo address.
The module parameters have the link back to the development website as default turned on. It is made very easy to turn this off in the module parameters - please remember in doing this you are cutting off the ability for other users to learn where your module came from.
The functionality list:
1. Specify what user you wish to grab images from
2. Specify the dimensions of the images on your website
3. Specify the amount of images brought through from the feed
4. Change where the images link to, if anywhere
5. Turn on/off a supporting signature to authors website
6. Decide wether to open links in new window or not
7. Change where the local cache of flickr images are stored
You can also find me in #joomla on irc.freenode.org under nick Andy- or Andy[1].
Please note that this does not style the output, as it would mess with a lot of templates.
New release available at download page with jQuery slideshow effect, and optional CSS parameters. You can download a core version that doesn't include these parts.
1. Option to have a jQuery fade in/out on request.
2. Option to add some basic styling like padding/borders.
* Version updated, downloads are both available at the download link here.
* Forum support added to website to aid people stuck with installation or settings (free support).
***** THIS IS CURRENTLY PHP5 ONLY *****
Installed in a couple of minutes without any problems. Perfect for a simple flickr feed on the sidebar. You will have to do a little bit of CSS (1px padding/border) but I personally like having full control over the styling.
On a sidenote - this is my first Joomla review (after using this site for several months). I feel the lack of comments can influence extensions unfairly so I wanted to recommend this extension to anyone looking for a simple flickr feed.

I saw that module and thought that's perfect for my site. I tried to implement it into my site (I use Joomla 1.5.x), but it didn't worked. I always got an error message, when I published the module. Sorry but for the bad review from me.
Owner's reply
You didn't contact me for help or support, which I am quick in giving. Very unsatisfactory review as its probably your setup that broke the module as I have had over 300 downloads and not 1 complaint. Perhaps you should consider why it doesn't work before assuming its the code rather than you.
