You can use Picasa Web Albums to create a Flash slideshow to embed in your site. Each slideshow features built-in playback controls, size options, and the ability to display captions. You will need to have a Google account to sign-up for Picasa.

To create and embed a slideshow with Picasa follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to your Google Account for Picasa Web Albums, using your Google Account username and password.
  2. Click the "My Photos" link and select the album you'd like to make a slideshow.
  3. Click on the "Link to this album" - located on the right-hand side of your browser.
  4. Then click the "Embed Slideshow" link. This creates a Flash slideshow from the album you've selected. When you update the album, your slideshow is automatically updated to show the latest photos.
  5. Back to the the Yola Sitebuilder, drag and drop an HTML Widget from the Sidebar on the right of your screen onto your page (the icon for this is a blue sphere).
  6. The HTML Editor will open up that will allow you to paste in your code. When you are done, click "Save" and your album will appear on your page.
