“Whilst there have been no official Flickr tools released for
Linux, the developers have made the Application Programming
Interfaces (APIs) available to software developers. The APIs allow
Flickr to be integrated into other Linux software.

“This article focuses on selecting the best small Linux
utilities that support Flickr integration. These tools help users
to edit, tag, download and upload images to and from a Linux
computer and the Flickr service.

“One application that is definitely worth an honorable mention
but has not been covered in this article is FlickrEdit. This is a
Java application which has an excellent feature-set, but we have
run into some compatibility issues with the Ubuntu / Java
combination we use on our systems.”
