#smiles

This is just a small, Instagram slideshow built in PHP and jQuery. It simply searches for recently uploaded photos that were tagged with "#smiles" and fades them in and out. I only built it get a better understanding of the API.

It will display the photo, the person's name or username, and (if avaiable) where the photo was taken.

Setting up

Setup is simple. Apply for an API key at Instagram Developer and plug that string in at the top of api.php. Easy.
