flickr plugin error: ValueError: GET/HEAD requests should not include body.

[Scott Sweeny]

I noticed that flickr entries haven't been showing up in the Friends app recently. I checked my logs and found this traceback occurring every time the flickr plugin is activated:

ERROR Thread-1 2013-12-06 16:37:17,896 friends.utils.base GET/HEAD request

  * Flickr: Fix oauth signing for a GET request. According to [1] the
    base string for the OAuth signature must include all of the
    parameters, but oauthlib won't sign a GET request that includes a
    body. Instead pass the parameters as part of the URL. [1]
