Flickr is a site that allows you to store and share photos. It was acquired by Yahoo. You can create multiple albums. There is a neat way to create a “Flickr Badge” to put on another website that leads to one of your photo albums:
.zg_div {margin:0px 5px 5px 0px; width:117px;}
.zg_div_inner { color:#666666; text-align:center; font-family:arial, helvetica; font-size:11px;}
.zg_div a, .zg_div a:hover, .zg_div a:visited {color:#3993ff; background:inherit !important; text-decoration:none !important;}
zg_insert_badge = function() {
var zg_bg_color = ‘ffffff’;
var zgi_url = ‘http://www.flickr.com/apps/badge/badge_iframe.gne?zg_bg_color=’+zg_bg_color+’&zg_person_id=41043338%40N00’;
document.write(”);
if (document.getElementById) document.write(‘
}
zg_toggleWhat = function() {
document.getElementById(‘zg_whatdiv’).style.display = (document.getElementById(‘zg_whatdiv’).style.display != ‘none’) ? ‘none’ : ‘block’;
document.getElementById(‘zg_whatlink’).style.display = (document.getElementById(‘zg_whatdiv’).style.display != ‘none’) ? ‘none’ : ‘block’;
return false;
}
zg_insert_badge();
if (document.getElementById) document.getElementById(‘zg_whatdiv’).style.display = ‘none’;
Say what? How do you do this?
If you want to share photos on the web, you can use Flickr.com. The Flickr badge above is simply a little tool they give you to point people to your shared photos. Since Flickr is owned by Yahoo you can log in using your Yahoo i.d.
Steps:
1. Go to http://www.Flickr.com
2. Create a new account using your Yahoo id if you have one. Otherwise make up a new id. Use a nickname of some kind.
3. Upload some photos.
4. Under Account look for the set your URL so you can make one that is easy to share. I just did this with:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/tedozark
5. If you are really feeling geeky, look for the Flckr Badge link and let it walk you through making a bunch of web code. You can copy and paste the web code on your own blog like I did above. But I can help you with step 5 if you do 1 through 4.
Please leave those instructions on the blog so that I can do this when I get some time. Thank you for explaining.
