Embedding Flickr Photos - as a slideshow - in your blog

Flickr has changed a few things. Apart from giving us 1 TeraByte free storage (which is awesome)
they made it harder to login (soon only Yahoo accounts will be possible. However, you can make one easily actually).

Another side effect: it's no longer an easy step to embed Flickr photo slides shows in your blog or on your website.

Well, there is always a solution:
Checkout
They make it possible again!

Just follow the prompts on their website. For an album to show, you would need to copy/paste the 
album ID-number (formerly known as set) into the parameters. You can easily see that number in the 
album URL (website address). It's a pretty long number (digits only)


After doing so, you will be presented with the embed code, for this album it would be:


You just paste this iFrame code into your blog post (choose text or html mode), and you will get
a beautiful slideshow with all (100 max.) images of the album.


Pretty easy, and slick for sure!
