For those who cant get it to work, try to enter your photostream, and find the http adress. Mine is www.flickr.com/photos/24737070@N04/, and therefor the app only understands 24737070@N04 as my username.
Hope that helps :)

great app, google maps are so much better then this stupid yahoo map. Will you be able to expand the app so that we can adjust the geotag of our own images with the use of the better map?

(e.g. 1527936@N24 is what I want to do)

or by keyword...

@Souljance: you can use this awesome bookmarklet labs.sumaato.net/tools/flickr_geocode_bookmar klet/ to geotag your photos with a google map.

@Scott, @Juniorbl, @ rex: thanks for the kind word, I really appreciate.

@bigstickmarkymark: could you describe your problem ?

@Jazzy_T: that would indeed be a good addition, and not too hard to do I think. The main problem is when there are too many pics on the map, the browser can crash because of the poor javascript performances. So I hardcoded a limit (1500 photos) on a map.

Can I add a vote for Group ID? I run www.flickr.com/groups/geotagged-vintage/ and would LOVE to find a better way to display the map, which is what the group is all about.

And if you can find a solution to how you can geotag or correct locations for *other* people's photos, the same way you can comment on them and even tag them (with the right settings) then that would be amazing!

Excellent App -- thanks for putting it out to us. It is a pleasure to see my photos on a google map. I will be scanning some old slides in the next week or two and posting them -- it is something I have always wanted to do is to see them all on a world map. thanks!

Eventually got it to work I tried my user name as it appears on my Flickr home page (screenname) but it didn't work. It did work though when I tried my Flickr name as it appears in the address bar.

John's background switcher works with my screenname. This seems more obvious to me which is why everyone else seems to be having problems with this app as well.

Hello,

want to thank you for the great app! Really like the idea!

The only thing that still prevent me from actually using it on my site is that not all of my pictures (far over 1500) are displayed. It seems to be only the 1500 newest, right?

I want to show all of my pictures on this map, which are scattered all over Japan. So I really hope you can do sth in this regard. Maybe all pcitures sharing the same geo location are counted or displayed as one picture with link to the album? Or if they are too near too each other (depending on the zoom level), only the one with the most views is showing and zooming in will load the others?

I raised the treshold a bit but I think the browser has hard time to place all the pictures. Did you see any difference?

Also you are right, the more you zoom the more scattered the pictures are.
