I spent a lot of time going through some of the mash ups that used Flickr and I wasn't sure if I had to have a Flickr account to use them. I ended up creating an account and uploading a few of my pictures on it to see how it worked. I had to choose "private" settings for all the options until I feel comfortable enough with the program and decide what I want to publish.
I liked the Mappr application so I can find pictures from any place in the world. It was interesting to see different photos from different countries. I also played with the Mosaic Maker, but I didn't save one. I created a Bookr about math using math pictures from Flickr but I wasn't sure how to give credit to the picture owners or where to write the address of where I got them from so I deleted it.
I finally had success with one of the applications, which is the trading card, and I created my own :)
