Dear Blogging Buddies:

For those of you more blog-smart than myself who have successfully put slide shows on your blog - how did you do it?  Thanks!!

Janie knows how. I just click on someone's slide show, then follow the instructions.
Love, Mom

I tried to follow the instructions, but it wouldn't come out on my blog - I have a slide show all ready, I just can't get it to come onto the blog...

Hi Jen
Michelle helped me do it the first time. The only way I know how to do it is from the Picasa web album site. I'm sure there are other ways. On the picasa site, 1. open the album 2. select "link to this album" (on the right sidebar) 3. select "embed slideshow" (also on the right sidebar) 4. a box pops up with the slide show preview and the options:
show captions, autoplay, and size. 5. copy and paste the html code, and then pase it into the "edit html" box on your posting page.

It's pretty easy. If not - I wouldn't be able to do it!

You did great on the slide show. What I do is use photobucket. Upload your pics there, pic the designs etc... of your slide show. Then click on the option to get the embeded code. You then go to the layout of your blog, click on the "add gadget" option, then click on the "html" option, enter the code there and viola you have your slide. Good luck. The one you have up looks great. I'll have to go look at all the pics now.

Thanks for asking the question and for these instructions! I'm going to work on posting some slide shows, too. I want to get working on it right now, but better go do some Saturday chores first...
