}
$count = 10; // the number of photos you want to fetch
$access_token = "###################"; // Put your access_token which is generated from instagram here
$display_size = "thumbnail"; // you can choose between "low_resolution", "thumbnail" and "standard_resolution"
$result = fetch_data("https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/17368863/media/recent/?client_id=$access_token");
$result = json_decode($result);
?>
<ul class="slides" >
<?php
foreach ($result->data as $photo):
$img = $photo->images->thumbnail->url;
$imageLink = $photo->link;
?>
<li style="width: 185px; float: left; display: block;">
<a href="<?php echo $imageLink; ?>" target="_blank">
<img src="<?php echo $img; ?>" draggable="false">
