Embedding with ease

The new bundled skin Mr.Burns is all about showing your photos, nothing else. It provides a smooth
and nice classical Ken Burns transition effect while playing the music of your choice. It’s also easy
to embed the album anywhere as it will fit in virtually any dimension.

Here’s a quick example

First, if you are going with a small embedd window, disable widgets. If you’re going to display the
album larger than say 500 pixels in X and Y it will work, otherwise best to disable it to conserve
the space. Also consider which background color to use, especially if you have many standing photos in
the album. The black default setting will suffice in most cases.

Once you got the album looking (and sounding!) like you want, just embed it within a plain
iframe like so;

<iframe src="http://dr-m.jalbum.net/alps/" frameborder="0" width="500" height="400" /></iframe>

Set up width and height attributes to something that looks good in the target
page. Mr.Burns will then automatically adjust to most any dimension and do its best to show off your photos, as you can see below in these four examples stacked together:



Then of course, the album is also available on the site as usual and will display a full window of zooming photos. It will use as much space the browser allows, or even enter full screen when you decide!

To use Mr.Burns you need version 9.6 of jAlbum – the skin is bundled in the download and available right away.
