No such thing unfortunately. Flickr themselves do have a developers  
mailing list related to the API though… http://

Best bet on getting started is to check out flickr.rb (http://  
[redgreenblu.com/flickr/](http://redgreenblu.com/flickr/)). By looking through the rdoc you should be  
able to do most things. The code for it is pretty easy to understand  
and modify to do what you want if it doesn’t already do it.

One tip: The API key is (unfortunately) hard-coded in flickr.rb, so  
you’ll need to paste your own one in there.

If you have any questions about modifications to the code you are  
having trouble, I subscribe to this mailing list, so will probably  
answer fairly quickly, as I am sure others will.

Cheers.
