Bug Description

Enhance Flickr sources: add support for albums (also called sets) and galleries, they tend to have fewer, but better content. Also allow changing the sort order from Date to relevance, interestingness, etc. and limiting the number of images used from a source.

This would allow for sources with better content to be defined.

Original bugreport:

when i add a tag or text the default sort orde seems to be date and mos recent are fetched, can you please give an option to chnage it to

1. Relevant
2. Recent
3. Interesting

Just as it appears on flickr.

if now can you change the default sort order to "relevance" please

e.g. : https://www.flickr.com/search/?text=karachi&sort=relevance

Thanks

Makes sense. This would also require ability to limit the search to the first X images, otherwise the sort order would be irrelevant.
