Users of Flickr photo sharing service now have an easy route to using their images within their Quick Blog posts.  (If’ you have already set up “Remote blogging” then you can skip the next paragraph.)  Using the remote blogging feature (paid blog only) 

You can use the new remote blogging feature, but first we have to enable Remote blogging.  Remote blogging can be found under “Manage Blog” > “Settings” and select the “Remote blogging” tab.   Now create a username and password that’s different from your main blog login (we’ll remind you if it’s not) and save these settings.  This user name and password  applies only  to the main blog account. Sub Authors can use their existing log in and password. Your blog is now able to receive posts remotely from Flickr. 

Now we have to tell Flickr where your Quick Blog lives.  Log into your Flickr account.   Select “Your account” from the “You” menu and then under the blogging section select “Your Blogs”

Add blog and select “Metaweblog API Enabled Blog” and then enter in your login details beginning with the API Endpoint:    This is your Quick Blog address plus /metaweblog.aspx appended to it.

 E.g.   http://blog.yourblogname.com/metaweblog.aspx 

Confirm the details match on the next page and you are ready to post.  Locate an image on your account to blog and click on “blog this”.   Write your entry and hit post.   In a minute or so you’ll have saved yourself a thousand words and have a neat link between your photo account and blog.
