Embed HD View
Here are some scenarios for embedding your HD View content in your blog. You can see these examples in action on Spaces and Blogger blogging services.
Scenario 1: If the content is hosted on Silverlight Streaming (HD View or HDView SL):
Here's the HTML for the embed above:
<iframe style='width: 320px; height: 240px; margin: 0' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' src='http://silverlight.services.live.com/invoke/63450/Rainier 360/iframe.html?FileName=Rainier360-HDView.xml&Viewer=2'>
</iframe>
In this case, replace "63450" (the HD View Silverlight Streaming account id) with your Silverlight Streaming account id. Also replace "Rainier 360" with your Silverlight Streaming application directory, and "Rainier360-HDView.xml" with your XML file name. This scenario can use HD View (Viewer=0), HD View SL (Viewer=1), or either (Viewer=2). The Viewer=2 case uses HD View on Windows and HD View SL on Mac. For instructions on how to upload your content to Silverlight Streaming please see our HDcreate page.
Scenario 2: If the content is hosted on a photo sharing site such as Flickr (HD View only):

Here's the HTML for the embed above:
<iframe style='width: 320px; height: 240px; margin: 0' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' src='http://silverlight.services.live.com/invoke/63450/HDView/iframe.html?FileName=http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3425/3200802651_976b2f141b_o_d.jpg&Viewer=0'>
</iframe>
Just replace the flickr .jpg file name with the url of your image. This scenario is HD View only (Viewer=0). Note that if you use Windows Live Photo Gallery or Microsoft ICE to create your panorama, then custom metadata in the jpeg will describe some additional attributes about the image - for example the above image is a 360.
Scenario 3: embed a KML photo overlay (HD View only):

Here's the HTML for the embed above:
<iframe style='width: 320px; height: 240px; margin: 0' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' src='http://silverlight.services.live.com/invoke/63450/HDView/iframe.html?FileName=http://www.gigapan.org/exportGigapan.php?nonl=1%26ids=7589&Viewer=0'>
</iframe>
HDView can open any KML file and display the photo overlay images in the file. In this example we are using the Gigapan web service which generates KML. To use this on your own Gigapans, just replace "7589" with your Gigapan panorama number and be careful to escape any '&' in the Gigapan URL with '%26'. This scenario is HD View only (Viewer=0).
Scenario 4: Embedding your Zoomify content (HD View only):

Here's the HTML for the embed above:
<iframe style='width: 320px; height: 240px; margin: 0' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' src='http://silverlight.services.live.com/invoke/63450/HDView/iframe.html?FileName=http://files.fieldofview.com/euromast_1gp/ImageProperties.xml&Viewer=0'> </iframe>Just replace the FileName URL with your Zoomify URL. This scenario is HD View only (Viewer=0).
