Discoveries: Flickr and Pictobrowser

Discover Flickr and Pictobrowser

Discoveries in using Flickr album imported to Pictobrowser is a story to tell that may help you show your Flickr photo albums in a unique way of displaying album through Pictobrowser creating script and using this script in a blog.

This story is one of examining other bloggers, and finding a successful blogger using Flickr and Pictobrowser to enhance a post.

Discovery in browsing blogs

While searching for travel blogs to gain some insight as to how to present our own blog, we found a site, “My Internet Connection TV Segment,” while posting a comment on Ken Leebow’s Blog. Ken’s blog presents an image album generated through pictobroser into script for pasting into his post. This really tweaked my interest to discover “how did the blogger do that.”

The technique is to present an image with thumbnail slide show below a larger image in the same frame. This method enables viewer to view thumbnails while viewing one of the thumbnails in a larger frame. The viewer can browse through a sliding bar of small thumbnail images and select any to expand the thumbnail to a larger size image.

Ken’s site,” Testing the Service Pictobrowser” showed the image of a pet dog “driving a boat” with associated dog images in thumbnail sizes. Below that image in the same frame in the lower right was “Pictobrowser”, also at the right, above the thumbnails was a link where the images were stored in flickr. The Author’s home page showed 199 photos were uploaded to his flickr page

My effort to emulate Ken’s illustration of this technique took several attempts due to ZoneAlarm or cookies blocking my access to Flickr, where I signed up for an account earlier

Pictobrowser

Here is my effort in using Pictobrowser extracting images from Flickr, by selecting user name and then the album name.

So, I created a flickr account and uploaded images from Portland Gardens:
