Flickr Frustration

Not really Flickr frustration. The second thing on my list of things to do is to explore Flickr and learn about mashups and third party sites. So I do this, and fall in love with a couple of different tools. But I can't seem to add them to my blog. I took an HTML class years ago, but I can't remember where I'm supposed to put things so they actually show up on screen - which is a problem. I'm writing this so I can stop my obsession for today and come back to this later.

I did want to mention which of the tools I fell in love with though. I wanted to use "Spell with Flickr" to replace the header on my blog. (One way or another I will replace the foggy flowers with something I actually want to see.) The programmer who created the site, Eric Kastner, was nice enough to put the code out there for anyone who wanted to copy and paste it into your blog's HTML, but right now I can't get it. The other tools are Trip Planner, which I might just use to document my trip to Ghana before I forget everything, and Flickr color pickr - very cool, but umm, what do you do with it?
