Yes, of course i want! I guess i should create a garage project for the plugin, so others can report bugs there. The most important points on my TODO-List are currently: Changing the image-listings to display thumbnail-images and maybe some Meta-Information (Date, Owner, ...) - i tried to figure out how the youtube-plugin creates the fancy video-listings, but i still do not really understand how it works. ;-)

Then i want to add support for caching the metadata in a database, showing metadata (comments, exif-information, ...) in the context-menu of the images, changing the plugin to use canolas downloadmanager, ... - the list of ideas is very long. ;-)

also I will put a task for Miguel (mperes) so we can provide you the icons for the main themes! it's the least we can do
This would be great, the current icon was just created from the tango-icons, only the two colored dots were added. ;-)

Regards,
Thomas

I tried the same using my 3G connection, and over here it seems a bit slow though - and so when no wifi is available maybe its better to have some photos stored internally rather than view online.
This is basically what it allready does - the plugin asks Flickr, which images are available in the current context like a photoset and it afterwards checks if there is allready an image with this id in the local download-folder, if there is no image locally, it tries to get the available resolutions from Flickr and starts downloading the files into the local download-folder. So browsing through images which you allready downloaded once over wifi should be relatively fast even over 3G.

A complete offline-mode should be possible too, but this would require a lot of coding work first.

My one wish, in teh full screen mode, is there a way to show the title of the photo as well ?
Also can comments against any photos be also shown in some more ?
This is a planned feature, i want to add such entries to the contextmenu in the image-viewer, where you currently only have the option about looping the images in the slideshow.

@Chelli: Hey duuude! Thank you again for the flickr plugin. Unfortunately, with the beta10 release it is not working anymore. We introduced some new features which demands a few modifications in the packaging. Take a look on the debian/rules files of our plugins and please let me know if you need anything.

Best Regards, Etrunko.

I took some time and fixed the debian/rules file and uploaded it to extras-devel for chinook and diablo. I'm sending the patch by mail.

Thank you very much for the upload, i allready fixed it locally but wanted to change one small thing before i do the upload, i guess it will take about 1-2 hours from now.

Regards,
Chelli

I just decided to postpone the upload a little bit, i would like to finish one important feature before the next release.

Well, the package in extras-devel should work with canola2 beta10, thanks to Etrunko. Before Etrunkos upload i migrated the older version into extras, so this version should continue to work fine with beta9.

do you have a general timeline?
Not really, i just work on it if i have some sparetime and if i am in the mood to do some programming.
