No word as to what the theory is?

Thank you. Cowboy hats do make me look sexy. lol! ;)

The theory was whether I could remote link from Flickr or not (I had a pretty good idea that it would work, given that they recommended it for Mac Bloggers). I might put a webcam box in the sidebar, and Flickr has an upload agent, so that might make it super-easy.

Was that just plain old "super easy" or were we looking for "super easy, but not likely to happen very often" super easy? :)

My logic at the time was that I could keep the same code in the siderail, but replace the picture by renaming a different picture each time to the filename in the code. I've heard of doing this before. UNFORTUNATELY, the way I remote-linked in my little 'test' wouldn't work for that, because of the way Flickr stores their photos. If I had an FTP link to something, I suppose that would be a different story, but right now I haven't figured out how to do it with Flickr.

I had also considered stealing the code from my Yahoo webcam page, but I couldn't figure out how to do that, either.

Ah well, it's a learning process, right? I'm just messin' around.
