Flickr Latest Photos - filter?

Categorized As:

1) Op/Sys: Windows XP 2002 SP 2, Browser: IE 6.0.2900
2) Crochetme location: User profile page
3) Item: Flickr Latest Photos.

Could we possibly have it such that users can choose or specify or filter-by-tag which Flickr Photos to display on the Profile page? E.g. I set it such that the Flickr section will only display photos I have tagged FO or crochet, or knit .. basically a list of tags I have decided are 'safe'? Because you know.. someone might unwittingly load a !Nekkid! photo on Flickr and you don't really want a !Nekkid! photo showing up for the crocheting world to see now, would you?

(Not that I'm saying that I'd upload an X-rated photo of myself but you don't know what anyone does these days, knit in the buff, swing upside-down, whatever.. I'm just sayin'!

CrochetME: where hookers get naked! I love it! Let's do it!

Oh. Wait. You mean that would be a *bad* thing. Okok, technically this is doable but it would mean hacking the Flickr module to add a filter. One tag would definitely be easier (and less resource intensive) to program than a list of tags...

When a photo of a military tank showed up in my photo stream here I thought the same thing (my friend was in a parade..I took a picture, but it's completely out of context for this site). I think it would be appropriate to have a default, single word filter (e.g. crochet) that can be changed by the user from within their profile (e.g. change it to yarn or craft or whatever).

Thoughts? Kim?

(Ahhh, lovin' it. I end up being called Spanky and now I want naked hookers on the site. Please don't hate me, Kim..)

No hate. No hate. I love naked hookers, too. (We're going to have to remember to delete this thread...)

Yes, as long as crocheters can change the tag, I'm all for it. (When we last discussed this, I had the impression we'd hardcode a tag and force people to use it -- I'm all about the individual control of such things.) So, right on!

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Spanky burns her bra and adds "customizable flickr tag filter" to her to do list.
