hey all, i’m looking for anyone out there who is using rflickr to access  
the  
flickr API. i’ve got some issues with flickr.auth.getToken, where, no  
matter what, I get an error of ‘invalid frob’.

it would also be nice to get anyone who is working on rflickr to form  
some  
sort of breakout group, so we could pass information around a bit  
faster.

Hi Nate,

I know this was a while ago but did you get rflickr to work for your  
purposes? I am trying to get started and struggeling with the lack of  
documentation and examples. Basically, all I want to do is find a user  
by her user name, find all of her photos that are tagged with a specific  
tag, and then get the source URLs of these photos in different formats.

If you would be willing to share some of your example code that would be  
extremely helpful!

And, did you find or form a user group?

Thanks!  
Ingo

I’m pretty sure i did get it to work, although i was using it almost  
exclusively to get tags from flickr.

I’ll dig out some code for you tonight. If I happen to forget just poke  
me  
again. 😉
