Picasa Widgets Plugins for your Blog

I'm currently using Picasa as my storage for my photos and I want it also be streamed onto my blogs.

Here are some nifty widgets for Picasa so that you can stream some photos in your blog or website.

Simple Javascript-based Picasa Widgets

To add this widget to your blog, copy the following code and paste into a sidebar widget (or directly in your template) where you would like this widget to be displayed. Be sure to replace “YOUR_USERNAME” with your own Picasa username!

You will need your Picasa username to configure this widget for your needs, and can style the widget by adding CSS declarations to the skin section of your template.

Official Picasa Slideshow Widget

Log on to your Picasa Account click on the album you would like to embed. On the right-hand side of your page, you will see the option to “Link to this album”. Here you need to click on the “Embed slideshow” option which will cause a pop-up screen to appear. Choose the size of widget you prefer and any other options to configure for your needs. A preview of how your widget will appear is on the right-hand side of the options.



Once you’re done, the code to embed the widget in your blog is displayed in the pale yellow area. Simply copy this code and paste in your blog where you would like the slideshow to appear.
