Tutorial Eight: Posting YouTube videos and Flickr Badges to Blogs

Here is a step by step guide on how to embed a Flickr badge onto your blog.

Step 1: Create your Flickr Badge.

• If you click on ‘what is this?’ on my Flickr badge a description will appear. On this description it says ‘make your own’. If you click on that it will take you to a page where you will be able to create your own Flickr badge. Follow the instructions.

• Once you have done this the code you will need to past into your blog will pop up. Copy this.

Step 2: embedding the badge into your blog.

• On the tool bar at the top of your blog there is the word ‘Customize’. Click on this.
• Next you will be directed to a page the say’s ‘Add and Arrange Page Elements’. Down one side of this page will be a list of functions your blog has. Find the one called HTML/Java script. Click edit.
• A new window will pop up. In the content section of this pop up paste your badge code that you copied earlier. You can add a title if you wish.
• Click save.
• Your badge should now be on your blog.
