Display Flickr photos in Gallery using BaseAdapter

In this exercise, we are going to modify last exercise "Load array of photos from Flickr" to display the photo array in Gallery widget.

Display Flickr photos in Gallery using BaseAdapter

We have to implement a FlickrAdapter class extends BaseAdapter, to adapt the photos in a Gallery.
