  Ok So I have this gallery in flash (FLAPI) and right now when you start it shows a specific set

  Example:
  <setid>72157603962610672</setid>

  What do I need to do in order for it to display any photos that are uploaded to the feed, no matter what set are they in?

  Sorry to ask here, but the FAQ on the Flapi site is no more, and I don't really know what to do.

  Thanks in advance!

  no automatic pic up..
  right now I have it set to open directly a specific set.
  If I erase that, <setid> tags, nothing comes up...

  in the config file, it has a showsets option that accepts overview, recent, or specific. if it's set to overview or specific it appears it will load the setid you define. if you change it to recent, it will load all recent photos from any set. and if you set recentnumber to some ridiculously high number, it would probably show all of them. i've used the flickr api, but never used flapi though, so these are all guesses.

  if none of that works for you, jump over to the flickr api page and check out all the different options they give you for loading photos, then download the flapi source fla and mod the urls it's calling to get what you need. code looks minimal and pretty straightforward, so i imagine this wouldn't be too difficult.
