FlickrDown: Download Flickr Photos to Your Site

Posted May 3, 2006 * Comments(2)

Flickr is my site of choice for storing and presenting my photos on the Web. However, it’s blocked in several countries, including the one where my brother resides (UAE/Dubai), and some of my family reside (Iran). Hence, a little script to do a silly thing: download my flickr photos to my personal site so they can see them.

This is written in Python, makes use of the lovely flickr.py library, is basically a copy-paste of Uche’s excellent article, and is extremely simple and feature free. I’m making it available on the off-chance anyone else has a similar need. Here’s what the results look like.

Here is the script: flickrdown.py
