As usual, things have changed a fair bit since then.The compiler is written in Lachiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07650485369751628193noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5238573.post-1115939639820484962005-05-13T08:56:00.000+10:002005-05-13T09:14:09.363+10:00Mark Pilgrim has written an online book about greasemonkeyMy Flickr Batch Enhancer script is mentioned... yay!http://diveintogreasemonkey.org/advanced/gm_xmlhttprequest.htmlLachiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07650485369751628193noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5238573.post-1112091804113136222005-03-29T20:14:00.000+10:002005-03-29T20:24:48.723+10:00Flickr Batch EnhancerReleased 2005-03-29The batch operations page on Flickr is a good idea, but is too limited. I used Greasemonkey to add some of the missing components. Better selection control fill selection - selects everything between the first and last selected image. invert selection reload batch with selection - reload the page with only the currently selectedLachiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07650485369751628193noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5238573.post-1108729223243127542005-02-18T23:08:00.000+11:002005-02-18T23:20:23.246+11:00I'm such a completist. When I get to like a band, I have this compulsion to own everything they have ever made.On Flickr, I'm still discovering the optimum way for me to organise my photos.

Thouless. Its a slim little volume, but exceptionally weighty in calm and rational wisdom."The exception that proves the rule" is a wisdom often used glibly to 'prove' any weak argument.Its very often used by those who supposedly posesses more worldly knowledge than their opponent.

Nothing and nobody we return to has changed.
