From the Picasa web site "Make that slideshow to go!
Create a portable Flash slideshow that you can embed in your blog or any other web page, like MySpace. Simply go to an album, click the "Embed Slideshow" link, and copy and paste the HTML shown into your website. The slideshow has built-in playback controls (just rollover to reveal), and it gives you the ability to turn captions on or off and pick from multiple sizes. "
