Today on Mike: Redesign v10, Part Whatever

Ok, so I've hit a snag in the redesign. Being a sucker for shiny things, I decided that I wanted the flash version of the Flickr Photo Badge, because it shows a number of more recent photos and moves/zooms in on them and HOW COOL IS THAT? Well, whatever. I think it's cool.

Unfortunately, Flickr developers are jerks who have it spit out in an iframe. I'm not positive, but I think iframe's stopped being ok about 4 years ago. They definitely don't validate in XHTML. I thought I had found a way around it. I went to the source javascript that they use, and pasted it in an attempt to work out the problems myself. It worked for most of that night and I was getting closer and closer to the page validating. Then today happened, and the pictures stopped loading. Consider me back at Flickr Photos Square One. Let me tell you, it's not a pleasant place.
