 * The plugin is not broken. The error you get, is because you are not authorized
   to use the 500px API. You must follow the instructions as described here:
    [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/500px-image-showcase-lite/installation/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/500px-image-showcase-lite/installation/)
   You have to register an application in 500px developers site: [http://500px.com/settings/applications?from=developers](http://500px.com/settings/applications?from=developers)
   and the copy the consumer key and paste it into the Consumer Key field of 500px
   Image Showcase settings page in the WordPress admin panel.
