Pre-usage
Before you use Gnickr you must authorize it to manipulate photos on Flickr. To to so run the program 'gnickr-auth.py
' from a terminal and follow the instructions in the dialog.Once you finish authorizing you must restart Nautilus:
pkill nautilus
Usage
To access your own photos on flickr point Nautilus to 'flickr:///'.To view someone else's photos simply point Nautilus to 'flickr://[username]'.
To add photos to a photoset drag it from the 'Unsorted' folder in to the desired photoset folder, the same could be done to move a photo from one photoset to the other. Renaming a photo is as simple as renaming the photo's file name.
Gnickr replaces Nautilus's image thumbnailing program with it's own, this allows the user to preview photos on Flickr by thumbnail alone. To take advantage of this make sure that "Show thumbnails" is set to "Always" in the preferences dialog under "Preview".
