Roy Tanck’s Flickr/Picasa Widget

Category: Extensions | Web Tools — JRBlack @ 15:05

Letter-Today the latest version of Colorful Tabs add-on for FireFox got installed and as I read about it, I noticed that you could use background images in the tabs and found  a link to a background image generator.  Now this image generator is nothing to write home about, or post about, but on that page there was this cool Tag Cloud Widget.  It is a 3 dimensional rotating tag cloud.  Quite nice, but it is a plug-in of sorts for WordPress and I haven’t yet taken the time to see if I can make it work with BlogEngine.NET.  But for you WordPress users, enjoy!

 

Roy Tanck's Flickr Widget requires Flash Player 9 or better.

Roy, (Roy’s site) the creator of this Tag Cloud thing also created a Flickr/Picasa Widget that operates the same way, but instead of pulling in Tag Clout text/links, it pulls in pictures and links from Flickr or Picasa RSS feeds.  He has easy form to fill out to generate the require HTML code to add this widget to your page.

Hi Jim,

This is a very cool widget.  Have you checked out converting it for use with BlogEngine.net?

Steve,

No I have not.  Too many interests and not enough time for them all.  If you do, please let me know.  By the way, sweet graphic for your gravatar and your web site.

Thanks for the complements.  I'll be working on making this work for BE.net just cause it is way cool.
