Flickr now supports O2’s strange photo emails
This is great news, you can send a email containing a photo directly to flickr from an O2 phone. This means that my previous work should become redundant. However flickr still doesn’t support the attached text message that you may slap with your photo. In my script I have implemented this, and here is how.
Essentially this is what needs to be done.
1) Use wget as before to grab

2) Run through the downloaded page and look for the line containing the string ‘div style=”color: #000000;” ‘
3) When you get to that line, the next line will be blank, skip through to next line.
4) you are now on the line with the text message on, copy that to a variable.
5) remove the tabs and spaces from before the message text
Now you have the message attached to the photo. I would just add this to the email text, flickr would add this to the photo description. Here is a link to the code I used to extract the message written in php. Sorry for the shitness in code, but it works. I hope this is of use to somebody.
