Elgg & Flickr (& Writely & Lots More)

    So a student of mine and I are looking at Youth Voices.net, a collaborative project involving lots of students and an Elgg that looks pretty interesting.  (You can read more about it, and get involved if you want to, here.  Or here.)  We’re noticing that there are lots of photos embedded in students’ posts, and we’d like to do the same.

    We need to know the API information for Elgg so that we can use Flickr’s "Blog this Photo" opotion.  I’ve followed these instructions, and they don’t work for us.  Tried them in Writely, too, and got no results.

    What are we doing wrong?  If we can figure out the API, then we can use Writely with Elgg.  And Flickr with Elgg.  And so on and so on.
