Error in Flickr Script

Question 
Hi!
I installed Flickr Script but I'm getting an error when running the script.
Can anybody help me ?

Python Initialization
TraceBack
File "Q:\Scripts\Flickr\Flickr.py", Line 50

import os, urllib, string, re

File "Q:\Python\Python23.zlib\re.py", Line 5
File "Q:\Python\Python23.zlib\sre.py", Line 97
File "Q:\Python\Python23.zlib\sre_compile.py", Line 15
IOERROR:zipimport: Can't read data.

Thanks,
Tiago

yeah that is really old and hasn't worked for at least a year due to changes in Flickr. The author is too busy to fix it. Once I can use the Windows XBMC environment I may start doing Python, but don't hold your breathe...

Mine works fine... just tested it on XBMC 2.0.1

zipped it and up'd it for you here:

that one works for me, the only problem is that the images look fine in the thumbnail but have screwed up aspect ratios when I view them full-size.
the other thing is it needs to be made compliant with the new python menu that was done like months ago (just rename flickr.py to default.py and make a logo for it named default.tbn).
I will probably try and get in touch with the author about this. It's really cool to have Flickr working on my Xbox Smile

There is a setting to adjust from 4:3 to 16:9, try that.

If you update the script please notify us here and post it on xbmcscripts.com

thanks!

you were right about the aspect ratio setting, I can't believe I missed that!
here's the icon I made, only with a red background to show the transparency. Very simple, but it looks nice and fits in with the rest of my scripts, which almost all have some sort of non-square icon.

I simply renamed the script file and added the icon as a TBN, so now it shows the icon and clicking the Flickr entry in the scripts window launches the script directly Smile
Here's a RAR of the script
