Flash Loops - Post to your Blog and Myspace

You can make an ultra-customizable Flash format Loop and post it to your Blog and to your Myspace pages. Loops make a fun, scrolling photo “ticker” for your blog.

Anyone who clicks on your Flash Loop will automatically get a one-click "Loop slideshow." No download required! It's a really simple way to show off your photos.

Here are a couple examples. Click on the moving Loops on these blogs to see the slideshow.

·       Skeezix the Cat – Hilarious cat wearing costumes

·       Naturally Connected – Beautiful Costa Rican butterflies

Check out the list in the left column of this blog too.

To post your Loop in Flash format:

1. Make a Loop in FilmLoop (click here to see how)
2. Right-click your Loop
3. Choose Post Loop on Web or Blogs...
4. Select the site where you want to post your Loop -- that's the host destination
5. Choose a Loop link style -- Flash format is the new format
6. Choose a Loop height, width, and speed
7. Copy the code beneath the loop. (Right-click Copy on Windows, or keyboard equivalent for Copy on the Macintosh.)

Now you have all the code you need on the Clipboard to post a cool loop onto your blog or web site.

Here's the web blog link dialog box:

   Your Blog and Myspace Loops update automatically
Whenever you add photos to your Loop, your blog and Myspace Loop updates automatically. Also, anyone who has opened your Loop on their desktop in FilmLoop will get your new photos automatically too.

Flash Loops are available for Macintosh and Windows. You can set the size of your Loop (from 10 to 550 pixels high). You can set the width (up to 2000 pixels wide). We think 144 pixels high looks good ... images will look perfect ... but you're in charge.  You can also set the speed. A speed of 1 or 2 is good. (You can go up to 100, but that will make you dizzy.)

Special eBay "Gallery Loops"
You can now also post "Gallery Loops" of your eBay listings right on your web site or blogs. Read more about this.

Here's a Flash Loop. Click on it to see the Loop slideshow, then click "subscribe to this Loop" in the upper right corner to open the Loop in FilmLoop.  You'll always have a link to the latest cool videos on YouTube.

Where can I post these Flash Loops?
Anywhere that accepts Flash.  You can also use Javascript, or just a plain link if you prefer.

Posted a loop today on our site at IndexCreditCards.com (it's at the bottom of the page) and while it was easy, it does something strange when looked at with Internet Explorer. When I first open the page, it works fine, but if I go to another page and then use the browser's back button to return to the page with the loop--the loop is cut in half. It is still scrolling, but is sliced in half height-wise. (Didn't have the problem with Firefox.)

I actually have the same problem when I look at the loop that is posted on this very page, too. Looked fine the first time, but if I leave this page and go back, the loop is cut off.

Is it just me, or do others see this?

Any way to get a film looplet out of the Mac version?

I posted a banner ad to my blogspot blog, but I had to change the end of the tag as it was created by filmloop because it wasn't closed. instead of /> i put > to make it work. However, once I posted the banner in my blog, I noticed that new pics show up fine in the player, but the blog banner never changes. It would be awesome if you could make the blog banner somehow update too, because then I could update webcomics daily i the banner ads across dozens of blogs.

In reference to Tommy G's comments as well, I had a different problem when posting on bloggers blog. The embed src proposed was not accepted. Had to change mine. So instead of /> at the end, I had to do > and it worked.

[Vincent Cheah]

in tmy last posting the word '' was cut off after the >

[Vincent Cheah]

No luck again. The word is embed and the smaller than and bigger than sign comes before and after in that respect. Whew !
