While looking for some information on how to export photos directly from Adobe Lightroom to Flickr, I landed on Andy’s My Enlightenment blog. In addition to featuring some beautifully illuminated photos there and on his Flickr account, Andy also had a couple of posts that included an embedded Flickr slideshow. Off on a different search now, I found a tool called “flickrSLiDR” on the Great Flickr Tools Collection, that turns out to be the same one Andy is using.
The tool is available here and it described in more detail by its creator, Paul Stamatiou, on his site, here.
Below is a slideshow of my photographs from the Atlanta History Center. You can move the mouse toward the top of the slideshow to control the display and speed, and toward the bottom to select individual photos from the set. Or, click on any photo to stop the slideshow and get links to my Flick account.
I seriously love the way this thing works!!
Created with Paul’s flickrSLiDR.

Hey Dale!
I’m glad my site was able to help you a little bit in discovering the flickr slide show. How is that export action working? I guess I could have helped more by linking directly to Paul’s blog, where I found that cool flickr slideshow widget.
The Atlanta History Center sits on some pretty amazing propterty! Do they offer timeshares? LOL
Hey Andy!
Thanks for coming by! No problem about the link to Paul’s blog; it was easy to find on the Great Flickr Tools Collection once I knew what I was looking for.
I haven’t tried the Lightroom export trick yet; I’ve been using a Firefox extension called FireUploader instead. Works very well and gives you FTP-style local and remote file management panes where you can drag and drop files onto Flickr, create new folders, rearrange files and sets, and so on.
The Atlanta History Center is a neat place to hang out. I wish they DID offer timeshares; it would be a hoot to spend a few nights in that mansion and pretend to have endless buckets of money.
Bye for now,
Dale
