Thanks for the comment. I’ll post up a copy of the updated Flickr Gallery source code (using curl instead of fopen) later today for public consumption. Hope it helps. :)

After several hours frustratingly hacking flickr-gallery plugins, I have realized that I am not a tech savvy guy. Not even close. My host (Dreamhost, I think it’s the same as yours) disable the allow_url_fopen function. too. I really want my flickr-gallery back to live again. Can you share your secret about this issue? Any help will be deeply appreciated.

Maybe you can share your hacked flickr-gallery plugins? I think there might be a lot of people like me, poor non-techie, in urgent need. Thanks. :)
