Just in case you hadn't heard of this yet, there is a site called flickslidr (http://flickrslidr.com/) that lets you build slideshows from your flickr photos and gives you embed code to use. I tried it with a PageBuilder page and it works fine. You simply use the HTML component and paste in the embed code.

    A little testing by our interactive specialists provided a little more info.

    "Just a couple things I came across. First is just pointing out that this is in an iFrame so if it goes on a secure page then you will get that insecure popup window. Second, in IE6 I get a popup which says "press OK to continue loading content of this page" which isn't intrusive, just one more step for people to take (this is on a normal/non secured page). Finally, it was perpetually stuck loading the images in Safari for PC (BETA). I tried reloading multiple times but it never seems to come up. You may want to check that on another PC and also on some Mac browsers to see if it is possible a Safari-wide or Mac thing. I could see clients being upset if it doesn't work for Mac browsers."

    Has anybody discovered a better way to have a slideshow in Convio that does not prompt error messages in Explorer? A slideshow that pulls from Flickr would be ideal.
