This process gave me a lot of grief.In the end I google searched "fickr badge" and got directions from there. I am still relatively unhappy because I was unable to use a flickr badge and could only embed it as a 'new post' rather than a 'gadget'.
Choosing either a HTML or Flash Badge
There are 2 types of Flickr badges that you can choose for your photos, which are HTML or a Flash badge. An HTML will show the photos in the original format in which they were posted. While a flash format will allow you to show more than one photo as well as show them in more than one format. eg- colour/ black-white.
Next - Choose your Photos
Now that you have selected a format that your photos will be shown as click on the button 'Next: Choose Content'. This button will take you to another page where you can select the photos that you want on your badge. Here you can either select individual photos or videos, or content that has been posted by other users, or specific contents.
Once selecting the pictures or videos that you want on your badge, click on the button 'Next: Layout
Select your Layout
Now you can select the layout for your badge. Your can choose from screen name, size, orientation. Once you have chosen the layout now you click 'Next: Colours'. This will open up a page where you can choose the colours for your badge. Click 'Next: Preview and Get Code'
Your Badge
Your badge will now be displayed on the page. Also a information box will be opened showing the HTML code with other information about the badges set-up. Now copy and paste the the HTML code into your new post page on your blog, and click on 'publish now'
