    The DIY Digital Photo Frame

    By Posted on 10.22.2008 5 Comments

    My mom loves seeing my digital photos, whether they´re of far-off places or my latest culinary creations, so I´ve long thought about building her a digital-photo frame that would show a new shot every time she walked by. But instead of loading 1,000 images onto a hard drive, I wanted to be able to update the library remotely, adding new pics as I shot them, so she could always see what I´d whipped up that night or where I´d traveled that weekend. I also wanted the whole project to be cheap, because, well, I´m cheap.

    Here is the link you requested. http://code.google.com/p/slickr-dotnet/ Seems the file is there and as stated you do need a flickr account but this was easy for me since I could simply use my yahoo credentials to create the account seems they are one and the same. Seems that flickr wants you to get an api key to ensure your not using this for a commercial venture.

    The link you requested for slickr http://code.google.com/p/slickr-dotnet/ I have yet to use it, but the file is there. Also as stated you do need a flickr account, but this was easy since you can use your yahoo email acct credentials for the creation of the flickr account seems they are one in the same, as for the api key once logging into flickr the link is right there to get your api key, although I don't know why this is needed since I have yet to install it. Seems they (flickr) wants to make sure your not using this for a commercial venture.
