How to Make the Flickr Flash Badge Larger
A Flickr badge allows you to embed your favorite Flickr photos on your personal website, blog or social networking profile. You have the option of showing your own photos in the badge or photos from other Flickr users. The badge is available in two formats, regular HTML and Flash. By default, the badges are quite small. However, you can make the badges as large as you like by tweaking the Flickr code.
