I just finished spending a few hours messing with this flickr junk which everyone seems to put on their sites (which means I’m not cool unless I have it too!). It wouldn’t have been so bad but at first I didn’t even know that you could create a flickr badge – then it took me even longer to figure out where on flickr’s site I could go to get info on making one :P

Anyways, right now I’m trying out this flickrRSS plugin which isn’t bad, but honestly doesn’t do anything spectacular, and it’s not as feature rich as using a flickr badge (though it doesn’t put a requirement of JavaScript on the client which is nice). I would prefer to use the flickr badge for now, but the default WordPress theme I’m using is horribly written (though I will say it looks rather nice – but the HTML/CSS coding causes all sorts of problems when you try to add to it) to be honest and was pissing me off as I was trying to display images as floated block elements, though this caused the rest of the sidenav to flow as if the entire image div was a floated inline block. Of course clearing all floats doesn’t work since the entire sidenav is floated itself (argh!).
