Welcome to Jickr, the Java Flickr API.

Getting Started - The whole idea behind this library is that it's designed to
hide complexity.  So it should be pretty easy to dive right in.  There are a few
programs in the package org.jickr.example, try starting there.  Examples can be 
found in the src directory.

Here's a few quick notes to help you along:  If you don't want to change data on 
Flickr, don't worry about authentication.  Read only access only requires an
APIKey and a Shared Secret (both of which you get from Flickr at 
http://www.flickr.com/services/api/keys/  For an example that just reads 
stuff, check out SimpleBackup.java in examples.
