Flickr Find in action
Did you ever need that perfect image for a presentation you were doing? Flickr Find makes it easy. Creative Commons images are returned by default, but you can make an easy change to search all images.
Requirements
- Firefox 3.6 or greater
- Jetpack Add-on 0.7 or greater
Install
Flickr Find is available at the Jetpack Gallery.
Basic Usage
- Select a word or a phrase on a web page
- Cloose ‘Search Flickr…’ from the context menu
- If the slidebar is closed, you will see the icon move. Click on it to see your results. If already open the results will just load there
- 20 items per page is the default, and you can change that in Settings. At the buttom choose ‘More…’ to fetch more images
- Selecting a new word or phrease will start a new set of image results. Selecting the same will just fetch more images and add them to the list
- Clicking on one of the images in the slidebar will open the Flickr photo page in a new tab.
I’m keeping it very simple, but if you have any features requests, I would certainly consider them.

I installed this addon but it didn’t seem to correctly modify my context menu in a nightly minefield.
I didn’t even test on Minefield yet. Do you mean that the item does not appear at all in the menu?
Right, I select a word, right-click on it, and the list I get includes: “Copy, Select All, Search Google, View Selection Source, Inspect Element, NoScript, Screengrab, Goo.gl (another jetpack item)” and that’s it

@crowder Do other jetpacks work? Might it just be this bug?
Yeah, other jetpacks seem to work alright; though I have definitely run into that bug, as well.
