This plugin requries Media Exporer.
It adds Flickr to MEXP's YouTube, Twitter, and Instagram, and a setting page to enter all the services API credentials.
Right now the plugin is based on code from MEXP Flickr plugin. But it will soon switch to the format of the Example extension for the Media Explorer.
