 * This plugin has nothing to do in this wp.org repository as it is 100% commercial.
   The so called “free” version includes external ads inserted by the plugin author.
 * Please remove form here.

 * Regarding the Adsense feature: The idea is to allow gallery users to monetize
   their flickr photos on their site in an elegant way with responsive Google Adsense
   ads places seamlessly into the gallery.
 * This is basically not a problem as I have understood [Matt Mullenweg posted](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-that-integrates-with-a-must-pay-for-service)
   on the WordPress.org support forums:
 * > There are plenty of plugins that tie into third-party services, for example
   > Google AdSense, and some of them have no free versions. That’s totally fine
   > as long as the plugin is totally GPL.
 * I have now double checked the plugin guidelines and found that:
 * > If the plugin does include advertising from a third party service, then it 
   > must default to completely disabled, in order to prevent tracking information
   > from being collected from the user without their consent. This is the method
   > commonly known as “opt-in”.
 * Version 1.0.0 and 1.1.0 are not compatible with that requirement. I’ll disable
   the Adsense feature by default as required by the guidelines. An updated version
   1.1.1 with “opt-in” will be available asap.
