more flickr stuff

This is a report on how I am using Flickr to build the website
www.kupenga.co.nz which is the frontend to flickr.

The use of flickr is to database the images of the kupenga stone symposium.

I use the flickr tag system on the kupenga images. I can then search these tags to build my page content.

For example, entering a tag search for kupenga "Filipe Tohi"

http://www.flickr.com/photos/search/tags:kupenga%2CFilipe+Tohi/tagmode:all/

returns a page of all of Filipe Tohi's images relating to kupenga.
A wonderful thing on this page is a link to

view as a slideshow.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/search/tags:kupenga+FilipeTohi/tagmode:all/show/

Note the slideshow needed to be modified, to work.

With the use of a date tag on images, in the format of day-month-year , I will be able to generate day by day slideshows.

That's if I get time from cutting my rock.
