Thanks so much, that works perfectly!
My Pi isn't pulling in my photos from Flickr or booting into full screen mode
Would recommend opening the file as binary, which allows this to work on Windows-based box too. My tests were on a Windows Python installation which caused corrupt jpgs to be downloaded until I added the binary flag 'b'
Line 39:
image_file = open(path, 'wb')
Does anyone have an idea how to retrieve images from a personal photostream (and not just a Set or specific Album)?
The general feed allows you to use Ifttt.com to push new Instagram images to Flickr (https://ifttt.com/recipes/392-automatically-share-your-new-instagram-photos-to-flickr) which has a far easier implementation for photo frames implementations. The photo frame can then display most recent Instagram photos (Instagram seem to have closed their APIs for external app integrations)
Everytime I try to run these commands:
export DISPLAY=:0.0
XAUTHORITY=/home/pi/.Xauthority
feh -q -Z -F -z -Y -D 5 /home/pi/photoframe/flickr
I get the error below:
feh ERROR: CAn't open X display. It *is* running, yeah?
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

So far the largest I've found that works would be "h" which gives a large resolution of 1600x1200
