I just installed and configured the module on an already existing website (users are already registered). Now anytime after login, there's an error message at the top of the page that says:

"username does not have a Flickr account"

Why is that happening?
Thanks,

Vito

Same problem here. Very annoying.

VERY annoying.

Ok. This is not the drupal way, but I did just go in and comment out these two lines:

grep -in 'does not have a Flickr account' *
flickr.module:99: drupal_set_message(t('%user does not have a Flickr account', array('%user' => $account->name)), 'error');
flickr.module:185: drupal_set_message(t('%user does not have a Flickr account', array('%user' => $account->name)), 'error');

Where is this going?
It is not realistic to assume that every user on a site will have his/her flickr account configured. Showing an error message for every such user is inappropriate and not helpful.
The message should be removed, and the user should simply be ignored by the flickr module.
