    Love it Can you try to link to the original photograph in the info button? That would really help. Excellent widget. Fast too.

    Nice widget! I agree the suggestion of alamandrax. The Update freq could be faster than 15 sec. like 5. Is that possible? andreas

    i ever wait sometime before post, to test it. What can i say, this widget is a must!. Just having an random auto-updating gallery everytime in his desktop is so so so nice! I'm stuck to this one, really nice job! wishlist: - i also miss a link to the url of the file in the info panel, or as a 4th little button. - as it is random, perhaps it's imposible, but sometimes i would like to see a very nice picture that has just been changed, so a back button would be nice, at least for 4-5 images, just to find the picture again when it's changed

    Great widget. I wonder if at some point it could access the Flickr API and allow us to login and view our contacts most recent photos, etc. That would be dreamy.

    Really wonderful. I love this so much. This is the best widget of them all. I could look at photographs all night on it. Well done! Beautiful! Great!

    how can i see my own album of flickr with this widget? Very cool this widget, it posts random photos.. but, most interesting for me, can see my photos posted in

    You would need to tag them with something unique to you, this works: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bflyen/tags/bflyen_nseries_flickr/ Using the tag bflyen_nseries_flickr shows only these photos in the Flickr widget. BenT

    this would be better if you could open the corresponding flickr page -- or is there a way and i havent found it?

    it actually needs only a minor modification of photoframe.js in the widget to make the flickr page available via doubleclick - however, I didn't find a way to notify the authors?! so for those who don't mind to use a text editor and hack in 5 lines of Javascript, here is what it takes: - if not done yet: download/install the flickr widget first - open a Windows Explorer and type/paste %APPDATA%/Opera/Opera/profile/widgets into the address/location line (only works if you have a standard installation - else file search for flickr_photos-_9.zip on your harddisk) - open the ZIP folder flickr_photos-_9.zip (this may not work if you have another version!) - drag photoframe.js to your desktop (make a backup copy of it) and open it in Notepad or any text editor (right click and choose 'edit') - in the first bigger block "addEventListener(..." look for the following line 33 33"front").addEventListener("mouseout", FlickrView.hideControlPanel, false); and ADD the next line after it: 33 33"front").addEventListener("dblclick", FlickrView.openPicturePage, false); - locate "//alert(errorStr);" and add the openPicturePage function after the closing curly bracket: ... //alert(errorStr); } // add here the following lines this.openPicturePage = function() { window.open("http://www.flickr.com/photos/"+currentPicture.owner+"/"+currentPicture.id,"PictureWindow"); }; // the following lines should (still) be ... this.showInfo = function(infoStr) { ... - save the modified file and drag photoframe.js back into the ZIP (read the warning to replace this file in the ZIP and acknowledge) - restart the flickr widget - a double click on any displayed picture should bring up a new window with the picture's page (if things go wrong, just drag the backup copy into the ZIP or delete and re-install the flickr widget - however it works fine here - all standard disclaimers apply! ;-)

    Can u create a one widget that will have more than one photo service in its own preferences, f.i. My Opera, Flickr, Picasa, Fotolog, etc.?
  • reisenderproMar 25, 2007
    I like it. The info button is very slow, but works.
  • sylvdoanxMay 5, 2007

    Beta? WTF? Flickr's Gamma!
  • mert.nuhogluSep 11, 2008
    Thank you very much for the widget. I put this widget into the corner of my screen and work with it. I would like to ask for a new feature. Is it possible to add a command to the widget that allows the user to add current pic into his favorites in Flickr.
