This allows the user to embed auto-playing looping Flickr galleries with a simple shortcode using javascript and css (no flash!).
Using the shortcode
The most basic way is to simply use a photoset ID (the admin page will look these up for you):
[simple-flickr set=72157633015103114]
You can additionally specify height and width, using any valid CSS. It defaults to 500×460, the default Flickr iframe embed (back when that worked…)
[simple-flickr set=72157633015103114 height=500px width=500px]
