CSS to create what FLICKR.com and BLURB.com use?

Does anyone know where I can find the CSS and possibly javascript code to recreate what www.facebook.com , www.flickr.com, and www.blurb.com use on their sites?





Specifically they have that 'down arrow' image next to their text menu names and it also changes to a box when hovered over.





Yes, I know they are using some sort of Javascript so I'm looking for any URLs, Codes, etc, that can help. Tthanks!

CSS to create what FLICKR.com and BLURB.com use?
I could not find the effect on any site other than blurb.com. Kinda a neat effect for a menu, but did you notice the JavaScript attached to that menu? Good grief. It took me a half hour just to get the damn thing to work. There are at least 10 different JavaScript files that make this menu work, not to mention the JavaScript that's written into the page. The majority of the JavaScript files are external files. You can see them in the source code, they all have the following extension "js?1200638416". You will need every single one of these files to make it work. Not impossible, but can be done. Not sure if the arrow images can be changed or not. I didn't see them at a quick glance in the code, but I'm sure there in there somewhere, or on one of the external JavaScript files. This is a nice menu effect, but unless you are skilled with accessing files on a sever, you will never get this thing to work. I didn't download the files to get it to work, though I could have, I just added the complete URL to the JavaScript file extensions and the images. The menu might be worth the time to clone, but unless you have a good HTML editor, it's just about impossible to do without.


Why go "pro" in Flickr?

What are the advantages/disadvantages of being/not being a pro ? %26amp; how much does it cost for a Flickr pro account?

Why go "pro" in Flickr?
Excerpt from Flickr FAQ:





Can I pay to keep more of my photos on Flickr?





Absolutely! Upgrade to a Pro Account for just US$24.95 a year. Here's what you'll get with a Pro Account:





2 GB monthly upload limit


Unlimited storage


Unlimited bandwidth


Unlimited photosets


Permanent archiving of high-resolution original images


The ability to replace a photo


Ad-free browsing and sharing





Compare that to what you get with a Free Account:





20 MB monthly upload limit


3 photosets


Photostream views limited to the 200 most recent images


Storage of smaller (resized) images
Reply:Hi, I agree with you that Flickr's interface is great, but I dislike the "photostream views limited" rule for free accounts. If you uploaded more that 200 picts, your earlier picts will be hidden. And I think once your account gets deleted due to inactivity, your photos will probably be gone too. Report It

Reply:I wasn't able to contact you. If you ebver see this, please email me , answerman[@]answerman.ru.tc I think I left a comment of you infofries blog in blogger. Is that yours? I have one more question on flickr. Report It

Why my Y!360 homepage doesn't update latest Flickr pictures?

Why doesn't my Y!360 homepage update latest Flickr pictures? It used to be good but lately it failed. Is it because I'm not a Flickr ProUser and I have exceeded 100 pictures in Flickr? Please help. Thanks!

Why my Y!360 homepage doesn't update latest Flickr pictures?
I dont think it's any of the reasons you stated. Flickr is slow to update their pictures in 360 for some reason. I don't understand why either, especially since Flickr is owned by Yahoo. But for some reason...Flickr and Yahoo 360 pages don't play well together. Just be patient and wait a while longer. If they don't show up within a day or two...post a comment on the Yahoo 360 Team blog about it.


A question about guests account with yahoo flickr?

I want to invite someone as a guest to view my photos in yahoo flickr. But when they click on the link that is in the email (the email sent from yahoo flickr to invite them), it brings them to the my login page. Does this mean I have to give them my yahoo password to allow them to view the photos? The photos are setup to be viewed only by friends and family.

A question about guests account with yahoo flickr?
You could change your pass, give it to them, then change it back later.





Also do you have them set as a friend or family?





Here's some info from Flickr that might help.





"Set your photos to be visible to only your friends or family (that is, not public). You can choose this option as you upload your photos, for individual photos already uploaded, by using the Organizr, or as the default setting for all your uploads.








Mark people as friends and family on Flickr. You can do this when you invite them or by using the Person menu to select friends and family members who are already Flickr members.





After you mark your family and friends and set the appropriate privacy level on your photos, your family and/or friends can see your photos under the "Contacts" link at the top of each page." - http://www.flickr.com/help/photos/
Reply:Simple problem. A guest, that is, any person using flickr without a user name and password, can not view a photo that isn't public. They must either create login info or you must change your profile settings to allow all viewers to see those photos. Even if flickr says the photos are public to friends and family, that is not the same as being just "pubilc". I would recommend simply changing your viewing restrictions rather than having them create usernames. Happy to answer any other questions.
Reply:Dont know!!! :-)
Reply:Go to options and make your photos public

Moving pictures to 360 blog from flickr?
why dont you just send them to yourself in an e-mail, save them to your computer, then move them directly to your 360 page from your pictures?when you send yourself the links in an e-mail, just save them to your computer, easy enough.
Reply:Go to your 360 MY PAGE and then to SHARE PHOTOS follow the signs here to your FLICKR a/c.. Make sure your album is SET on PUBLIC.. Then wait for a couple o months! Organise your pics into albums etc and select the album you want for your 360.. mine has finally arrived! http://tinyurl.com/yox66w Report It



How can I show picture of Flickr on Yahoo360?

I have upload picture on Flickr, put them in sets and set them all public


In my share photo option of Yahoo360, it said that there is no picture at my Flickr account

How can I show picture of Flickr on Yahoo360?
Mine did this for a couple of weeks. I never did figure out what the problem was...but I kept trying to add my photostream and one day, it just worked.





It could be that the photos need to be approved or something like that. My advice, frustating as it is, just keep trying to add it.
