Linking Flickr slideshows to website +

[Lorne.t]

I'm always uploading pictures to Flickr but rarely update my website as it's too much hastle.
I'd like to link straight to my Flickr slideshows but was wondering if there are any better slideshow type programmes out there.
I don't want to have to upload my pictures anywhere else though so they will have to still be sourced from my Flickr uploads.

Anyone?

just trying..

seems to work ok.. just linked to the slideshow directly..

Thanks for the reply.
I knew that could be done but I'm looking for a different type of slideshow that I can link using html on my website,sourcing from my flickr sets so I don't have to upload elsewhere.

You mean something like this?

Thanks for the examples,very helpful.
My only comment on these two are I'd rather be able to view all the shots when clicking on the slideshow (like Flickr) so people have an opportunity to forward to the shot they want to see.I just really want the Flickr slideshow set up with a different look and not screaming FLICKR!!

Can take photo sets from Flickr and most other photo sites and gives you the html to copy onto a website.

Thanks these look good at first glance.
i'll investigate them tomorrow....

I'm trying to go with pictobrowser but the link to Flickr just appears as code on my page.
It's a Mr Site website so I've posted on their forum.
Any help here would be great though.

I'm afraid I can't offer much help as I've not used pictobrowser before.

Here's a slideshow of the photo competition week I hosted recently (http://www.db798.com/pictobrowser/preview.php?ids=72157600288024257&names=TheDVDforums&source=sets&userName=infinitychimp&userId=67971513@N00&titles=on). Do you mean the Photo Link button that appears near the bottom right corner appears as code?

How about using Soundslides?

No.

I mean the link it gives you once you've uploaded your pictures.

I've now got pictobrowser working.
Are there any skins for it that could give me a black background instead of white?

[gagsy]

In the html code pictobrowser generates, change both instances of #ffffff to #000000 when you come to pasting it into webpages.

[Lorne.t]

Thanks,that worked a treat!
Now to give it a complete overhaul tomorrow...

I've got the top four pages sorted anyway if anyone wants to comment.
I know it's cheap and cheerful and the orange background wont stay for long

Still working on it but it works extremely well.
It's going to be really easy to update my site in the future.
I'm also able to have hundreds of pictues on each page if I need to.

[Lorne.t]

It now only takes me a couple of minutes to update my website but I'm having problems using Pictobrowser with My Space.
Anyone managed to get it to work on their My Space page and if so what did you do as it doesn't work for me posting the normal code.
I have youtube videos working so I don't know what the problem is.

[gagsy]

I've just had a quick look. I think you just need the pictobrowser html code that starts and ends with:<embed ... </embed>

[Lorne.t]

Perfect!!

Thanks a lot.

You can see the result here...
