HOW TO MAKE A SLIDESHOW IN BLOGGER

1. Log in to your Blogger account using your Google ID. If you don't have a Google ID or haven't set up a Blogger account yet, sign up with Google or configure your Blogger account from the Blogger homepage. Once logged in, select the blog you wish to add a slideshow to.

2. Click the "Layout" option from the drop-down options menu for your blog. Click one of the "Add a Gadget" fields to open a new window containing a list of official Blogger gadgets; the slideshow will appear wherever you install the gadget within the layout.

3. Scroll down the list of gadgets and click the "Slideshow" option to open the slideshow configuration page.

4. Give the slideshow a title. Click an option from the Speed drop-down menu to set a speed for it, and check the "Randomize images" box if you want to display images in random order. You may also enable the option for clicked images to open in a new window.

5. Select a source for your slideshow images from the Source drop-down menu. The default option is Google's Picasa Web album that's automatically created when you sign up for Blogger, though you can also choose to display images from a Flickr account, Photobucket account or a media RSS feed. Each option has its own configuration options, including the ability to choose images by keyword, sub-album or user account.

6. Click the "Save" button to save your settings and integrate the slideshow into your Blogger blog. To make additional changes to the slideshow later, if desired, select it from the Layout window.
