Got a blog/website?



If so, fancy having your latest album pics and vids displayed on your very own site?

Well I'm currently testing it out here as you can see in the right hand column.

The top one ("My latest mobMMS pic") is the single-image version, which just displays the latest image from your album and displays it with no messing around. This is the easiest option for most people.

The one below that ("My latest mobMMS pics") is one which allows a bit more customisation, but is a bit more fiddly as you need to set a few variables - but you'll be able to do a lot more with it, such as:

  • show/hide the subject title

  • show/hide the date and time

  • show more than 1 of your latest photos at once

  • alter the size of the thumbnails displayed

  • show/hide your avatar

  • show/hide a link to your full album



I'll also be adding options like "random photo" and "random photos from your album".

And if that's not enough, with a bit of css magic you'll be able to customise it to ensure it fits in with your blog/website! :-D

Now, this is currently done with javascript at the moment, rss/xml versions will be on their way shortly, so we should have all bases covered for those wanting to display mobMMS content on different sites!

It doesn't even have to be your album - if you like someone else's album, it'll be simple to swap your latest pics for someone elses, allowing you never to miss one from your favourite mobMMSer by accident again!

I'll be putting up instructions and details soon once the last few tests have been done, as the url/location of the script may change during this period.

Is this something you'll use? Or got any other feedback? Let me know in the comments!
