PictureTrail (many thanks to Langwitches for having it in her Del.icio.us Links).
It was very simple to do and the array of “flicks” to choose from to display your images is really cool. Embedding the code for so that your “flick” appears in Edublogs was a little bit technical (but not too hard) …… Here’s how to do it incase you want to give it a go! (It really was easy!)
When you’ve signed up (free of course) and made your flick in PictureTrail you will be given a copy and paste code for embedding.
1. Copy that code (entire) and paste into a textedit app. of some sort (or I guess a word doc. would work too)
2. Look for the code that starts with http://flash.picturetrail.com/pflicks…….. etc and copy……..up to it’s ending of .swf
3. Click on the flash button of the edublogs visual editor and paste the url just copied from picturetrail embed code
4. Click ok and enter the WIDE pixels (which should be around about “460″) Click ok and enter the HEIGHT pixels (around “350″)
5. Click ok and you should see a code pasted in your blog post. You be able to see your “flick” from PictureTrail embedded in your post (using preview)
Merry Christmas everyone. May you enjoy the festive season with your family where ever you may be!
Whoops! It would seem that Edublogs will not allow you to embed this kind of swf. You can click the links below though to see my Christmas Tree Flick that was easy to embed in Blogspot and Wikispaces. (PictureTrail offers code for many other spaces too like MySpace, FaceBook, Typepad, LiveJournal etc)Click here to see my Christmas Tree Flick embedded in Blogger
