Just put together this module heavily based on the video_cck_feedapi_mapper, but it essentially does the same thing as that mapper only it will allow you to map a flickr feed to an emfield image cck field.

This has just been tested a few times using feeds from flickr and picasa (worked perfectly for picasa, but i think there is an issue with the picasa regular expression in the emfield module's picassa.inc because it isn't parsing the "original url" as being from picasa, though it is getting inserted into the image field as can be seen in the screenshot of my content_type_photo table).

NOTE: The .txt file is actually the mapper.inc file, just rename the extension to .inc (I couldn't upload a .inc file to the commet, sorry)

Sometimes it creates empty nodes... See the attach
and when i remove this evaluation valid_url($feed_element) it works fine

Had the same issue on empty nodes.
The feed would update but only empty nodes were created.

try in line 31 changing
//if (is_string($feed_element) && valid_url($feed_element)) {
to
if (is_string($feed_element)) {

im not sure why , but for me it helped.
