Test of Embeded Slideshow

Test #1, using the standard "embed slideshow" code from Picasa Web Albums:

Test #2, using the instructions posted by WindsorSean at the Picasa Help Group here, to get the slideshow to use photos from all albums:

1 - Go into any album and click on "embed slideshow"
2 - Set it up so it looks the way you want and then copy the "embed" code it gives you
3 - Paste in notepad or any text editor
4 - Find this code and remove it (up to the next % sign): %2Falbumid%2F
5 - Add this code to the end of the flashvars string if you want to restrict it to your public photos: %26access%3Dpublic

So your final code would look something like this (I took out my userid):

[embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="288" height="192"flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&RGB=0x000000&
feed=http%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi
%2Fuser%2FS[your user id]%3Fkind%3Dphoto%26alt%3Drss%26access%3Dpublic" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"][/embed]
