MediaTicker Help
Automatically Update Friends and Family with your Latest Photos
So, how can my photos automatically appear in my friends' tickers, you might ask? Easy. You can do this using Flickr or Kodak Easy Gallery.
With Flickr
- Get an account at www.flickr.com and upload your photos.
- Tell your friends to get MediaTicker, then send them the RSS URL for your photostream (its on your photos page).
- Now, whenever you post new photos, they will automatically appear in all your friends tickers. Youre syndicated!
With Kodak Easy Gallery
- Sign up for an account at www.kodakgallery.com
- Then sign up for a "Premium" account - $24.95/yr. Only "premium" accounts have RSS feeds of your gallery, so getting a premium account is the only way to publish an RSS feed of your gallery.
- Create albums, upload photos and "publish" the albums to your "premium" home page. Your home page has a static RSS feed associated with it the content is updated any time you create and publish a new album, but the URL doesn't change.
- Tell your friends to get MediaTicker, then send them the RSS URL for your photostream (it's on your photos page). Every time you publish a new album, the album cover will appear in your friends' (or family members') ticker.
