If you feel a little adventurous to do some little tweaking here and there and upload some files to your host or a place like google pages if you want.

if you are willing to do that. you can get this very cute flickr search. it is already fully made up by Makoto3.com. a japanese silverlight developer. he provides you with the files and the full instructions to get your own widgetized flickr search done.

For instructions check this translated to English page:

To see the live example set up he has:

Live Example (in japanese)

The best of this flickr search is that is done in Silverlight 1.0. so even if silverlight 2.0 final comes out your flickr search widget will get to work with Silverlight 2.0 since they are back compatible (i saw this in silverlight 2 beta 2) and even linux users can get to see it in moonlight 1.0 (i checked) but what is even cooler is that it will be visible in cellphones running Silverlight Mobile 1.0 (to ship this summer)
