Show random public flickr photo with certain tag
I’m redesigning my family website, and I want to be able to display a random medium-sized (500px wide) public Flickr photo tagged with my family’s name (so anyone in my family can upload photos to Flickr and tag them and they’d show up on my site). I’m new to Flickr, but it seems perfect for allowing me to get photos of my extended and very-spread-out family.
I’ve looked into the Flickr plugins for Txp, as well as the Flickr make-a-badge tool, but can’t seem to figure out if what I want to do is possible. Is it? How? (Maybe this php code will do?)

Do you know this plugin? Lachlan knows a lot about flickr, perhaps contact him…

The latest version of vdh_flickr has all you need.
Use this code in an article or page template:
<txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails nsid="43973976N00” tags=“family” random=“1” thumbnails_form=“random_pic” thumbnail_size=‘n’ />@
And create this form called “random_pic”, type misc:
<txp:vdh_flickr_thumbnails_list />
