Still getting on the Flickr bandwagon, so I'm looking at how to organize photos. I'm trying to figure out the difference between collections and sets. Bold denotes direct quotes from Flickr's FAQ.

Q. How is a collection different than a set? (convenient question!)
A. A set contains photos. A collection can contain sets (or other collections).Oh,

It seems there must be some better alternatives to how they did that.

You can't add just a photo to a collection, as far as I know. You can only add sets to collections. If you create a set for just that one photo, you can then add it to the collection.

Okay, that fits with my theory, then. And with the Java interface description. Thanks!
