Everybody Get on the Wall
Sometimes, the best ideas come from the best wishes. We heard from professional web developers, everyday photo album enthusiasts, and everyone in-between, “I wish there was a way that everyone could surf my media using the Cooliris wall, directly on my webpage.”
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Cooliris for Your Site.
Your website visitors no longer have to fire up Cooliris in order to browse your media with the 3D Wall. Now you can embed the wall directly into your website as a Flash application. While those with Cooliris can launch your gallery full-screen from the embedded Wall, those without it can still get a taste of the experience!
Setting up Cooliris for Your Site couldn’t be easier. Once you have a media RSS feed containing your content, just paste it into our ready-made embed code. Add a crossdomain.xml file to your website, and you’re good to go! You’ll find everything you need, as well as step by step instructions and examples here: http://developer.cooliris.com/embed
We know a lot of folks do their websurfing at places like work or the library, where it’s hard to load third party software. So now there’s a quick way to ensure that everyone can enjoy your site’s media the way it was meant to be seen: in streaming 3-Dimensional splendor with the Cooliris Wall.
Here are samples from three developers who embedded the Cooliris Wall on to their sites. Feel free to post your own in by commenting on this blog post!

It’s very cool, but there are still some bugs in it!

I’ve embedded the player on my art portfolio site (http://art.thehomeofjon.net). Check out the gallery by going to http://art.thehomeofjon.net/art/archive.html and click on “View Slideshow”.
Slick new product!

Hi there,
This might not be the best place to send this request to but I tried sending it to bugs@piclens.com and feedback@piclens.com as suggested on your website and they bounced back???
Please help me!
I’ve been converting all my gallery pages over to use Cooliris (what a fantasic product
and all but one of them is now working.
For the life of me I can’t see why http://www.dlscape.com/newgallery/01portfolio/index.html isn’t being recognised as a cooliris ready page??
I’ve had similar issues with the other albums and it’s always been something like an ‘&’ in the page title which I’ve been able to spot. This time I just can’t see what’s stopping it from loading. Having spent about 4 hours scratching my head I’m going to have to admit defeat. Please help me! It’s driving me up the wall!!!
Any assistance you can offer will be very much appreciated.
Best regards
James Ball

please enable local folders to be viewed . It used to work but it is now broke . Please
fix this or sell a standalone adobe air app . I need and use this … had to downgrade my flock addon but would like for firefox and safari. This is a beautiful piece of art and you might even consider making a web template for lightroom:)))

-love the FF extension… makes viewing images fun.
-not so fun for my folks who are both using Linux (it saves me from doing the virus.malware,trojans dance)
-some of my friends love it when they see it on my computer and get freaked out when they see its a 4MB extension when other are in the hundreds of K’s. i’ve never had a crash but it still freaks people out.
-I know you know but allowing us to view our own pix on our hard drive (dont forget sub-folders) will be a killer feature. I will drop AseeDsee and Irfan as soon as you do this.
To view our own pictures in this manner would be amazing…
nice job.
