Improving great software because you can

livewriter02[1] I recently joined Flickr and I've been using Live Writer for doing blog entries for a decent amount of time.  I have to say I really like Live Writer since I just need to type and it takes a lot of the grunt work out of formatting, uploading images, tags, valid XHTML .... 

Tim Heuer created a really sweet flickr plugin for Live Writer but it has a major flaw in my opinion.  It gets the pictures from oldest to newest.

Now if you have 100 pictures in one set, as I do, this starts to become annoying quick.  But fear not, Tim has made Flickr4Writer open source on CodePlex!  I'm going to mod it and add in that additional functionality.  Now sure how you are allowed to put source back into Codeplex though.

May check out how the Tags works since it wasn't playing very nicely for me last night after I uploaded some new photos too.  That could have been a propagation issue on Flickr's end however.
