    Hey,

    that has solely to do with Flickr URL feed.
    You can read more about it here and here

    For example, tag your images with a unique name and use it like this:
    http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?id=YOUR_ID_HERE&tags=TAG_FOR_SLIDESHOW

    It would be great if there was a way to add your set withouth having to use RSS. RSS feeds on flickr only allow up to 22 or so photos. This is a huge limitattion for MSS+Flickr users. Any way to code monoslideshow to use the set itself rather than an RSS feed?

    After a little playing about with the RSS links that Flickr generates, it <strong>is</strong> possible to display a specific Flickr Set inside MonoSlideshow. Simply take the RSS feed link that Flickr generates for you:

    http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photoset.gne?set=SETID&nsid=USERID&lang=en-us

    and add the following onto the end of it:

    &format=rss_200

    This formats the RSS feed so MSS can interperate it properly. I haven't tested this extensively yet but it seems to work from what I have seen so far. The final link should look like this:

    http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photoset.gne?set=SETID&nsid=USERID&lang=en-us&format=rss_200

    Hope this helps!! :)

    (Obviously replace SETID and USERID with the ones that Flickr generates :))
