Source

Source is in Flex 3 and ActionScript 3. You can compile it using the Flex SDK or Flex Builder 3. Note, you must use the 3.0.2 version of the Flex SDK in order to compile the application. You can find more information here. You can find information on how to setup your development environment here.

Compiling

Usage

Download and install the application from the AIR file.

Once you have installed and launched the application, enter the flickr account ID or account name of the account that you want to download the images from.

Once you have specified the flickr user id or username, then you can optionally specify the folder that the images will be downloaded into. By default, images will be downloaded into a directory named flump on the desktop.

You can also specify how the downloaded files will be named.

Important

Currently, flump will only download the original image source, and can only do so, if the Flickr account owner has set their account permissions to allow the original images to be downloaded.

You can find more information on this in the Can I access my original Images question on the Flickr FAQ.
