I generally keep the arguments in the same order as they are in Flickr's online documentation. Failing that, you can always glance at the rflickr source. It's messy, but it works.
I've got a decent hack for implementing keyword arguments while maintaining backwards compatibility, so look for that down the road.

There are a couple of mistakes above. The instantiation should be:
flickr = Flickr.new(nil, 'd85e46dced857d8512159aecf4338f75')
because you're not using a token cache file.
Secondly, the search should be
photos = flickr.photos.search(nil, params[:tags], nil, nil, nil, nil, nil, nil, nil, nil, nil, nil, 24)
It sucks, I know, but Ruby doesn't support keyword parameter passing like you're trying to use. In hindsight, it might have been better to pass in a Hash of parameter => value pairs.

OK.. bit of a follow up. I managed to get a token created, and it appears to try to use it whenever i make a request, but now i get 'Unknown User' errors. I am still curious how I would make the call without having to do authentication. Any hints?

I want to switch to rflickr as it returns more data than flickr.rb did. But when I try to do something simple like search for photos based on a tag, I run into all sorts of problems. Do I still need to worry about things other than just my API token if I am doing anon requests?
In a nutshell, I do this:
flickr = Flickr.new('d85e46dced857d8512159aecf4338f75')
flickr.auth_mode = false
photos = flickr.photos.search(:tags => params[:tags], :per_page => '24')
but that bombs. with the wrong content type error. Do I need to get into the frob stuff? I'm new to ruby/rails, so I apologize for simple questions :)
