I like to put Flickr photos in the articles on my blog, but it is a pain in the ass to always use Flickr Advanced Search to find them. This script is hemorrhoid cream for Flickr.

This script will force all searches on Flickr to return creative commons images. This is *very* useful if you want to use flickr for finding photos to reuse in other projects.

You can further tweak the settings by surfing to http://flickr.com and using your
Firefox browser menu to select Tools >> GreaseMonkey >> User Scripts Commands

This lets you change the settings so that it can find images that are free to use in commercial works or images that are free to modify.
