Ran things through the QT Creator debugger.  Looks like it wasn't connecting to my flickrviewsengine because the isvalid variable was false.  So I changed things up a bit.  Decided to use the Time engine because that's the one always used in examples.  Still got the same error.  Here's my current code:<div>
