How to embed your PSS into Facebook

natasha — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 16:17:48 +0000

By now you should all know that you can embed your 6rounds personal profile slideshow anywhere. But many of you may be wondering how you can actually embed your profile into facebook. Below is a step-by-step guide to help you:

1. Add an HTML Profile Box

In order to begin, you’ll need to add a HTML profile box into the boxes area of your profile. To do so, find the HTML Profile Box application page.

Once the page opens up, you need to press on “go to application”.

If this is your first time using the application, you will get a pop-up asking for permission. Press “allow”.

Once you’ve done this, you will be taken to the application. You’ll see the empty HTML Box as shown below.

2. Get the Embed Code for your PSS

After you’ve done the above step, open a separate window (or tab) and go to your 6rounds profile. At the bottom of your personal slide show, you will find your embed code.

3. Do A Little Copy and Paste

The first thing you need to do is copy and paste the code below into your html box:

Now take the embed code from your profile and find the part that is in red below:

Once you have copied that snippet of code, paste it in the html code you previously pasted into you HTML Profile Box where you see PASTE IT HERE.

4. Update

From here it’s simple, just press the button.

Click on the image and make sure that everything works well. If you have any problems, send me an e-mail to natasha (at) gixoo (dot) com.

I am sure that you would be surprised by how many people think that all the tweets on Twitter, all the blog posts, and all the information of Facebook are computerized. In fact, some people are even convinced that I’m a computer, or that my messages to you are automated. Once, after having a chat with this guy, he wrote in a message that he thought I’m not for real. To be honest I was quite offended.

Well, it’s been some time since our journey together began here at 6rounds, and I’ve met a lot of you, but I think it’s time that I introduce myself a little better and give you a little bio about myself.

Before I go into who I am, why don’t I explain a little about what I do here at 6rounds. In short, I’m your contact person, your go-to-person and of course I am your amigo. If you have any comments or suggestions, if you need help with anything, or even if you just want to talk, I am here for you. I write most of the blog posts, and update most of our social media and social networking content such as tweets, Facebook posts and so on. I write about new features, site updates, company news and developments, contests, and basically anything related to 6rounds. Sometimes my blog posts include tips, the different ways 6rounds can be used, or just random stuff that I think will interest you. I read all the comments you write, all the messages you send in and all the feedback you give, so if you ever have any comments, questions or concerns, you know that I am here for you and will do whatever I can to help.

So my full name is Natasha Gina Shine. I was born in London, England and lived there until the age of 12. Then I moved to Irvine, California. I went to both high school and colleges in California and graduated from Irvine Valley College at the age of 18 (with an Associates Degree). I moved to Israel when I was 19 and now live in Tel Aviv with my boyfriend and our two cats, Tweet and Wiki . When I moved to Israel I restarted University from the beginning, and studied in an English program at an amazing school called the IDC Herzeliya (Interdisciplinary Center).

My mum is from Brazil, my father is from England, I have grandparents from Russia and Poland and have lived in 3 countries thus far. Did I mention that I have a Russian name?

So what more could you possibly want to know? I’m not a computer, and I am real. If you want to know more about my personal interests, check out my profile on 6rounds.

If you want to get in touch with me, you can send me a message through 6rounds or you can e-mail me at natasha (at) 6rounds (dot) com. Don’t be shy, I’m here to help.

Having technical problems? Here are the most FAQ’s!

natasha — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 20:34:27 +0000

Although we have an FAQ page, one which we try and update as often as possible, I still get about 10-20 of the same questions each day. That’s why I’ve decided to dedicate this week’s blog post to the 8 most frequent questions I get asked. If you have any questions that you’d like answered feel free to post them in the comments below or send them to me and I’ll be happy to answer them for you.

Question 1: I’m on a Mac and my webcam doesn’t work

Control-click anywhere in the flash video and go to your settings. Check your webcam settings and make sure that the USB camera (iSight) is the one that’s selected. Sometimes you have to deny and then allow in order for it to kick in.

Question 2: I’m using Linux (Ubuntu) and I’m having problems

Unfortunately, we currently do not completely support Linux, therefore, if you’re using any version of Linux’s operating systems you will run into some problems on the site. Sorry for the inconvenience. On the other hand, if you’re a Linux user, you are already familiar with this kind of problems

Question 3: My Google Wave extension doesn’t work…

First, I would recommend you read our blog post about our extension entitled How to use 6rounds Google Wave extension. Then I would ask you one simple question, has anyone taken the seat opposite you? If not, then someone needs to in order for it to connect. If someone has and nothing happens, it can mean one of two things, either the person has logged off the wave and is therefore not “actually” there and wave hasn’t received that information yet, or there was a technical error. If you believe it was a technical error please send me a message.

Question 4: Isn’t rounds.com a part of Google Wave?

If you are on rounds.com that means you are not on wave. In order to use our extension in Google Wave you need to be logged into wave and then either open a new wave or edit an existing wave and then follow the directions in our blog post How to use 6rounds Google Wave extension.

Question 5: How do I invite more than one person to my session?

Currently we only support one-on-one video chats. In the future however, we will be supporting up to six people in a round. Stay tuned.

Question 6: My webcam isn’t working (and I’m not on a Mac)

Right-click anywhere in the flash screen and go to your settings. Check in your webcam settings that the correct webcam is selected. Sometimes you have to deny and then allow in order for it to kick in.

Question 7: I don’t get it, how do I chat with someone?

There are several ways you can begin a session:
1. Join a random round using the big button in the Lobby page. The system will soon link you up with someone else who joined as well. That’s a great way to check out our system!
2. Go to the page titled People and scroll-over the specific person whom you wish to invite. Then, you will see the option to invite them to a one-on-one. Click it.
3. Go to a profile and under their picture, press on the button that looks like two webcams.
4. If they are your friends you will see them on the right side under your friends list, click on their name and underneath their name you will have an option to invite them to a one-on-one.

Question 8: I can’t remove someone as my friend!

Go to the profile of the person you want to remove, on the right, under their (and your) friend’s list you will see the option to remove as friend. If there is someone who is bothering you, you can also chose to block them (only if they are not your friend). If you go to that person’s profile in the same place as remove as friend you will see block this person.

* Please note that we are currently aware of a bug in which you cannot delete Natasha Shine or Steven Miles as friends – we are in the process of fixing this problem. Please be patient with us.

The above are general answers that should help solve the specific problems mentioned. If you do not find the answers helpful, then you are probably experiencing some sort of technical problem in which case, please send me a message or comment on this post and I will try my best to help you out.
