6+ Flickr Plugins for WordPress
Flickr is a great source for images that one can integrate into blog posts. You need to just ensure that the licensing terms for the images are acceptable for you to integrate into your blog.
The most obvious way to get these images are to search for the images directly at Flickr; save the image of your choice to your disk, and then upload it into the media folder of WordPress. To long and tedious a process, I must say. There are several Flickr plugins available for WordPress which makes this process as simple as it gets. Many of them take care of the licensing terms as well, by restricting the search to images which are released under the Creative Commons license.
So, finally let me list out some of the plugins that I am aware of.
Tan Tan Noodles Photo Album
