Embedded Slideshow from Picasa Web Albums

Google Blogger gives you two ways to create slideshows from your photo albums in Picasa Web Albums:

1. You can add the "Slideshow" gadget as a page element in your blog, including the sidebar (see "Cool Conifers," shown lower-right sidebar);
2. you can embed slideshows in blog posts.

For step-by-step directions that explain how to embed a slideshow in a blog or website, refer to the Picasa and Picasa Web Albums Help page, Different Ways to Share: Embedding albums, images, and slideshows; click on “Slideshow.” A sample slideshow is shown below in two sizes that fit nicely in a Blogger post.

Tech Tips: Apple Computer does not support Adobe Flash on its mobile devices, so embedded slideshows from Picasa Web Albums (such as the ones shown above) will not display properly on the iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad. For this reason, you may want to include a hyperlink from your blog post to the photo album.
