Showing app/views/flickr/_photo.rhtml where line #1 raised:

Invalid API Key (Key has expired)

Extracted source (around line #1):

1: <img class="photo" src="<%= photo.sizes[0]['source'] %>">

RAILS_ROOT: ./script/../config/..

I'm assuming that the post important message is the one that says API Key has expired... does anyone know why this is? I just created it. Does it take some time to become active or what?

I have the same problem. I got my key about a week ago (and hadn't used it much) and it expired two days ago. It seems that the Typo crew ran into the same issue, they suggest registering a new api key. (Typo Flickr Fix :: scottstuff.net). I applied for and recieved a new key and am still having the same problem.

Any hints on how to resolve this would be appriciated.
