Fun With Flickr
OffWing Photo uses both Photoshelter and Flickr to share our photos with clients and with fans. Like any good handyman the trick is using the right tool for the right job.
One tool that I have started using is referred to as a Badge by Flickr. Flickr provides both html and flash versions that you can include as part of any website. They also have several different layout options that you can personalize. Photoshelter has just launched a similar service however it is not as robust as the Flickr tool.
Following is an example of a Flickr badge, using photos from the last game we shot.

Flickr also provides a lot of control over what photos are included in a badge. For instance I upload all of my photos as sets. I then choose which set I want to include in a badge and then choose for Flickr to randomize the photos in the feed (you can also choose the most recent). You can also create a badge that pulls photos across different sets by choosing a tag.

Below is an example of a flash based Flickr badge, again it is cool. I don't like this as much as the html version because there are fewer choices in personalizing the image presentation.
