This is a very col plugin, and I am trying to pull the actual PJP code for shot_flickr_feed_gallery into a page, and show about 30 images per page. Can this be set up using feed parameters in the php call, or should I pu a feed to call in those paranthese?
Here is my example:

My feed seems to bring in my latest photos at the bottom? Is it possible to swap this around? I.e. most recent photos come in first – left to right?
Please

It works well, but only with small images in the sidebar using the widget. I tried adding the code – – to a page but it is clear that only works for people who know where to paste it in. Why can’t it use a short-code?
I’m happy to pay for a plug-in, but not when it costs the same annually for the plugin as for a Flickr Pro membership, like Slickr Flickr does.

Having the same problem as Adam above, the latest photos are showing at the bottom! Would really prefer the latest to be at the top.

I’m playing with wordpress before I migrate my site. Can you tell me how to:
1) Remove the black borders from the photos?
2) Make the title font bold?

Adam-
Not sure if you’re reading, but I was looking for my photos to be displayed with the latest photos at the top as well.
I fixed it by editing the plugin file (wp-content/plugins/flickr-feed-gallery/flickr-feed-gallery.php) and changing the line that says:
jQuery(content).insertAfter('#ffg_marker_span');
I changed it to:
jQuery(content).insertBefore('#ffg_marker_span');
Hope that helps!

[...] http://www.jaysonjc.com/projects/wordpress-plugins/flickr-feed-gallery Most photographers have some sort of presence of Flickr. This plugin pulls your latest flickr uploads and allows you to display them on your blog. I generally opt for a sidebar display but you can easily add the images to your pages and posts. [...]

Why is that the number of images is restricted to 10 in WP Flickr plugin? How do I increase the limit? Further, the screenshot put up here isn’t exactly what I see on the current version of it?
