My friend wants to have a photo portfolio website like this:

http://www.luciaholmphotography.com/

She wants to know what the best method would be to be able to effortlessly update photos on her site. She has a flickr page and we're wondering if there's a way to update her website through flickr somehow. We're trying to see what our options are. Thanks in advance.

sure you can use the flickr pics, but please tell your friend that a site that forces a browser to auto-size isn't cool

Hi

I'm working on something now which is for a photographer who wants his own website and uses Flickr and wants both combined so what you need to do is go into the Flickr API garden: http://www.flickr.com/services/api/

Here you have a list of API kits (JavaScript, ActionScript, etc.) and also the API arguments (date, name comments, picture type, category, username etc).

• You need to decide what kind of scripting you will be using as the basis to your website.
• You also need to decide what kind of information you want sent from Flickr to your website (Main Picture/Comments/Photoset etc)
• Develop the code, configure a keycode from the API Garden, integrate it into your code, get yourself a API Key (compulsory:for security) and test!

There are scripts available out there which you can just edit and install with but you still need to do all the work at the API Garden (such as getting key codes etc).

Thanks jstylist. I've been wondering the same thing. I have a huge flickr account and want some of the photos on my webpage.
