Kflickr is an easy to use photo uploader for flickr∞ written for KDE.

Ubuntu PPA Created

You can now get kflickr via my Ubuntu PPA (Personal Package Archive). If you use Ubuntu making use of the PPA will allow you to stay up to date with any new releases without having to go out of your way. You also get the security in knowing what you are downloading and installing is signed with my GPG key thus removing the possibility of installing malicious software. To add the PPA visit http://launchpad.net/~asselsm/+archive/ppa∞. If you haven't used any PPAs in the past instructions are linked from the page.
