A. You can only use photos that are designated to public consumption. If you want a picture to be used, define it as a public access picture.
Q. I have public photos in my Flickr account but I can't seem to log in, what is wrong?
A. You need to use your Flickr screen name. If you are using the correct name and still can't log in, you may need to enable your Flickr account to work with the greeting card application. To do that you need to uncheck 'hide my profile from searchers'. Then try again. You can restore the original setting once done.
Q. I like this application, who designed it?
A. It was done by Aeshen and by Wunderman
Q. I have a flickr account and when I enter it, it shows picture of someone else account, why is that?

A. Email to: slval@microsoft.com and specify the exact issues you had with the application.
