Embed Warehouse models to blog
-
I was wondering if someone could explain a tutorial about how to embed
3d warehouse models into a blog since I have a few models uploaded I
want to show them on my blog too. Here's an example of what I'm
looking for.http://blog.geoblogspot.com/2009/01/embed-sketchup-3d-model-widget.html
In advance thanks for everything

The WH models can easily be embedded by using iFrames. You should first find out if your blog allows you to do that or editing the html code at all.
If so, just copy the "embed" link at the bottom of your model page in the WH and paste it into the html code where you want. Best would be to put a <p> tag before and a </p> tag after the embedded element.
Edit: I had a look at the source code of what you've linked. The WH model is embedded with iFrames (as I wrote above):
<iframe src="http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/swivel?mid=e5aa52a98c314eb68f6403ee5dfeb02" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" frameborder="0" height="300" scrolling="no" width="400"></iframe>I think it's quite understandable English and you can find out what is what but if you have questions, feel free to ask. Here is a brief description on iFrames (believe me it isn't as terrible as it sounds).

There is a web exporter by google that creates this swivel feature, that you can include to your blog with an <iframe>

Before I knew about it, I had extracted the swivel feature on Googles site and got it to work how I want it. You ca insert selfmade images or screenshots. Its best, if you make scenes (4 scenes and a proper animation are enough) and go to file -> export animation, choose jpeg and the number of frames per second. This way you can make scenes how you like and control the angle, zoom and the number of images.

this allows also not circular paths like this: http://aerilius-de.blogspot.com/2009/03/trifels-castle.html

Cool.
(If you've told that it's for blogspot, I know that html editing and embedding iFrames is possible there so I shouldn't have asked)

the funny thing is that every time I inserted the code provided in the warehouse and then into de HTML edit in blogspot the result was an static image
I don't know why but it's solved now thanks for everything
