Since I had a question about how to embed the opponent finder on one's own blog, I made a little video.
I decided to have this one unlisted as the last video I put on youtube was not very well received, and it hurt my feelings. ;)
Anyway, I edited it down so that it's not quite as rambling. Hopefully you will find it instructive. If you already know how to do this you don't need to watch it and tell me how I did it wrong. :)
I'll try to summarize the steps in case the video doesn't make sense.
- Navigate to the opponent finder.
- Click on the Share icon.
- Choose the embed option and copy the code.
- Determine the size of the area you are putting it in (this can also just be done by trial and error, the width to height ratio is 1.33, you can manipulate it how you like.)
- Paste the code into your HTML post body text or HTML gadget added to your layout.
- Done.
So hope that works out for you, and that you can bring more friends into the fold.
Cheers!

Thanks Dreamfish. I hadn't noticed it before you mentioned it. I may be lazy and just leave it.
DeleteCheers for the advice, I'll see to it tonight, thanks for helping the computer challenged ones out there ;)
ReplyDeleteNo problem JB. I do sometimes wonder what this world has come to when I'm the one dispensing coding advice. ;)
DeleteI might do this... when I get some time lol
