  3. Click on the "Add Gadget" link at bottom right of the page.

  7. A page headed "Setup your gadget" should appear.
  8. The width and height can be altered but it's advisable to use 320x200, 640x480 or 1024x768 for normal use. (Width 640 and height 480 is most common.)
  9. Enter your user name (for the album) in the "Show album" box.
  10. Your username is the bit before the @ only. (It's also the address used by picasa albums)
  11. Select the "Flip delay" required. (I used 5)
  12. The settings on the "right" part of the Preview box can not be edited.
  13. Click "OK" in bottom right of "setup" box.
