Some one help me to set back ground music in 360 blog?

Question

i went to a website which gave me this tag: add this code into blog 360.But i don't know how to!

Answer 1

U have to paste the code into ur blog. Here's how to Copy n Paste in case ur not familiar with it:

Put the pointer at the beginning of what you want to copy (the code) left click so that now the cursor is blinking at the beginning of the code. Click the left mouse button, holding it down while you drag to the end of the code.

Drag across or down. At the end of what you want copied, let go of the mouse button.

What you want to copy should now be highlighted.

(If you goof, left click the mouse button once to unhighlight, then start over.)

While it's highlighted and the pointer is touching the highlighted part, RIGHT click on the mouse once. LEFT click on Copy.

Now go to where you want to paste it. Put the cursor on that spot by clicking the left mouse button once.  Then right click once and click on Paste.

Here r the steps to put the code in ur 360 blog:

At ur 360 page..

click on My Blog

click Compose Blog Entry

add text (words) to your blog entry (otherwise it might not "take")

place a checkmark in the lil box next to View HTML Source

paste in the code

add ur tags, if u want

click Preview, if all looks fine

click Post This Entry.

Answer 2

I'll give you a few options to try in terms of music for your 360.

Basically, you must use a MP3 file(s) or video that's been uploaded to an online music/file hosting site. There are FREE accounts available at various sites. These services - after you OR someone else has uploaded the music - will provide a web address for each file. If the site has an embeddable player, it will provide an EMBED code as well. NOTE: You may need to use multiple sites. Make sure to read the FAQ, Help, and Terms of Use for each service you consider.

1) Add music to 360 via your "My Page/Top Page" BLAST. Click "Edit Blast", paste the URL address of the MP3 file in the URL field, add text to the blast, and save it. The visitor will need to click the play-button icon when it appears.

SOURCE: http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-1qCkw2Eha...

* This allows you to put music on your Top Page instead of your blog, but it won't play automatically.

* If you want to use already music OTHER people have already uploaded (the faster option), you can search for music using various music search engines as described here: http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-4D4zxsg6f...

* Fileden, HotlinkFiles, SnapDrive (with a paid account) or Ripway (probably with paid account) are your best options for using YOUR music in your blast (some other sites, like Imeem, don't allow hotlinking - meaning visitors would have to login to the site to hear the song). See more explanation here:

http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-4D4zxsg6f...

2) If you want a MUSIC PLAYER WIDGET or just a place to host INDIVIDUAL MP3 FILES for use in your blog, you can do it with music you upload OR you can use music other people have uploaded.

YOUR FILES:

Create a free account at http://www.imeem.com , http://www.esnips.com/ (autoplay not working), http://www.fiql.com , or other similar services to upload the MP3 files, generate the EMBED code, and then copy and paste the player's EMBED code in a blog entry. At imeem.com the code can be set to include "autoplay" if you check the box next to the EMBED code. So, you can create a "playlist" as well as "individual MP3 files" for use in your blog.

- Compose a new blog entry

- Select the EMBED code you want to copy, then right-click to select "Copy."

- Check the "View HTML Source" box, position your cursor and right-click to choose "Paste." Uncheck the box to get back to the regular blog screen.

WARNING: Do not save your entry with out adding some text. Also, there may be some slight delay in getting the audio to appear. If you refresh the page, it will probably show up.

* This method allows you to make music play automatically and create lists of music that don't require the user to log into an external site. However, when people visit your main page, the music will not play. They have to go directly to your blog and the blog page on which that entry is located. With Imeem (and other sites), you have to be careful because some songs require people to log into their site to hear beyond 30 sec. snippets.

* See example of this here:

http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-4D4zxsg6f...

In the event that you want to use your music files, but they are in WMA or another format, I recommend installing and using the conversion program called Switch (http://www.nch.com.au/switch/ ) OR make sure that when you rip songs from a CD in Windows Media Player, that you choose the MP3 format.

OTHER PEOPLE'S FILES (again, the faster, easier method):

Create a free account at http://www.projectplaylist.com , http://www.seeqpod.com , http://www.last.fm/ , http://www.dizzler.com or other similar service. They allow you to search for songs ALREADY UPLOADED to their site or other sites. Then, you simply add those songs to a playlist. Generate the code for the widget. You may have to delete some extraneous Javascript code (between Style tags). Choose the EMBED code that applies to any site. If that's not available, try a MySpace version of the code. Embed the player according to the instructions under "Your Files" above.

3) ADDING VIDEO (including, music videos):

- Find the embed code for the video that you want to add. See http://www.youtube.com/sharing , for example of how this embed code is displayed. You can choose a video from Yahoo! Video, YouTube, or Google Video (and even more services than that).

- Click on "My Blog" and create a new entry.

- Type some text in the actual entry space as well, as it might not save.

- Click the box next to "View HTML source" in the upper right of the entry space before adding code.

- Copy the embed code and paste it into the space.

- Click the box next to "View HTML source" to get back to regular view if necessary. It may not show up until the entry is Previewed or Saved.

- Click "Save" button and see if it appears.

See http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/blo... for the help page regarding embedding video into your blog.

You can also add a link to the video's web page to your Blast, Blogroll, or a blog entry (by typing the name of the link, selecting the name, then using the "Add Link" button on the entry's toolbar to add the web address).
