About this plugin
This was based initially on the Flickr Badge Widget, but it is a lot
more basic, and uses a Plogger library feed
for its source.
I wrote it because Flickr started wanting to charge me for hosting photos. I pay a few bucks a month on web hosting, and didn’t see the point in
also paying Flickr, given that uploading via SCP is no harder than using
jUploadr or whatever. I installed Plogger, which seems to be a
decent bare-bones replacement.
However, the one thing I missed about Flickr was the nice WordPress
widget that showed my photos in the sidebar of my blog. So, I scratched
my own itch and wrote this widget. Presto – thumbnail images in the
sidebar.
You just assign it a Plogger feed URL and it does its thing. (The GPL
)
It is still very basic and needs some developer TLC to give it the
features that Plogger deserves. Hit me up if you can help – I don’t have
much free time, so improvements will be slow if it’s just me on my
own.
