General information

Glam Notes is a free web 2.0 service for webmasters, bloggers and other web-sites owners which allows their visitors to leave notes on their pictures. For example, Glam Notes is a simple and nice way to make your photogallery look exciting. It is written in Javascript and is free for everyone to use.

Installing

Just include a line of html-code into your webpage (see below).

Registering

Just leave the first comment on your site: now you're an administrator. You need to leave your real email to restore your rights in future in case of losing the cookies. No additional steps required. Of course, you should have cookies turned on in your browser.

Moderating

Delete any notes you dislike on your site by simply clicking the delete button (it's shown to the site's administrator only).

Notifications

Any time your visitor leaves his email in a note he subscribes to all the glamnotes to the particular picture. Of course, each email notification contains simple unsubscribe instructions. Administrator receives all the notifications by default.

Rights restoring

If you lose your administrator's cookies restore it by pasting your secret code to the name-field of any Glam Notes form on your site. Your secret code is sent to you in each administrator's notification email.

Multiplicity

You may use Glam Notes to more than one picture on a page or to one picture on multiple pages. By the way, you need to include just one script tag into a page with a multiple number of pictures on it.

Multilingual

Your visitors can leave notes using any latin, cyrillic or hieroglyphic language: thanks to unicode.

Browser support

All the modern browsers are supported: Internet Explorer 5+, Firefox 1.5+, Opera 9+, even Safari 3!

Known problems

1. Use width and height parameters for each powered picture (commentable or a preview one).

2. Include the script tag after all those pictures, the very end of html body is the best place.

3. Type the full URL in a previewfor parameter for a preview.

Bug-reports / feature-requests

Please, leave them directly on a test-picture or by email at the bottom of this page.
