Description Matt Alley 2008-09-26 14:51:00 UTC

Flickr will show public pictures from other flickr users, such as "Interesting Pictures" and "Recently Added Pictures."  However, when I select the "My own pictures" option the screen just shows the controller's background and no pictures.  I have verified that I do have pictures in my flickr account. Also, I believe others have reported this in the community on slimdevices.com but I did not see a bug reported.

I believe at this time the Flickr screensaver does not have the facility to enter a user password so any pictures you wish to see would need to be set to public on the Flickr website.  Please let me know if this works for you. If it does this bug should probably be changed to an enhancement to add Flickr user password support.

Steven was correct, making my photos public allowed them to show on the controller.  Changed this to an enhancement to add Flickr user password support.
