Post Put Flickr Photos on my Wordpress site

As the title describes, I want to start a slideshow on my wordpress website which will pull out photos from my flickr account(URL in signature). I would like it to display a big photo on the page with thumbnails of the other pics in my flickr photosets so user can click on the thumbs to enlarge it. Which wordpress plugin would do the job for me?

I tried Flickr + Highslide but I'm not able to get which code to post under the page so that it can display my pics. Is there anything better than Flickr + Highslide?

I want this to be a classy one since it should look professional as I want to get into serious photography later on.

Do you have a wordpress.com account or are you hosting your own .com account?

Did you try the Flickr Photo Albumn for Wordpress plugin? You can find it here - Flickr Photo Album for WordPress : tan tan noodles – msg free since 2005

There are quite a few plugins for Flickr, which one is right really depends on exactly how you want to use it. This one works well for what I want to do, your mileage may vary

Actually I have two flickr accounts - One for hosting images on my site & the other where I have the official portfolio. I already use the Tan Tan Flickr plugin to hotlink images on my site so it is associated with a email ID different than the one which has my photography portfolio. So I can't use that.

I am running my self hosted wordpress blog. I loved the Flickr + Highslide but I'm not able to get it working. Please have a look at it given in my first post.
