Get Images on any Topic or Interest

Here&s where it really gets cool. You can fill your ticker with images on almost any topic...beaches, cars, lions, parties, celebrities, you name it. Web sites like www.flickr.com offers RSS feeds for popular tags (keywords) associated with every image. www.webshots.com offers a selection of daily photos posted by users, and www.framechannel.com has channels of premium photo content you can add to a single personalized RSS feed.

A good place to start is the Flickr tags page http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/.

Click on any tag that interests you, then scroll down to the bottom and right-click on the RSS badge and select "Copy Shortcut" (Internet Explorer) or "Copy Link Location"(Firefox).

Then just paste that into your Roxio MyAccount feeds page and click the "+ Add Web Feed" button. The images will appear in your ticker if you press F5 to refresh.

People from around the world post photos to Flickr every day, so popular tags like "beach" will probably provide new photos in your ticker all day long.
