How do I add these gadgets to my site?
For the most part, all you need to do is copy and paste our code into your site's HTML. We will give you a snippet of code for each gadget you create. Also, we have recently created Flash tutorials which show you how to insert our services using several popular tools/services. If you think we should add another company or service to this tutorial series, please let us know!
Why Won't My Images / Banner / Logo Show Up?
Some webhosts (especially free webhosts, such as Xoom) do not allow other systems to load images from websites they host. What can you do? Move to a place that allows remote image loading (most do), such as Tripod.
My TopSites Page Comes Up Not Found (404 Error)
The TopSites script creates the TopSites page whenever a user places a vote. In order to see recent changes, or to initially create the page, you need to tell the script to do so - there is a link in the control panel to re-create the index page. Click this link and your TopSites page will appear.
How Can You Afford To Host These Gadgets for Free?
Simple - we place a single, business-friendly banner on each page loaded on our website. You can see a sample of the banners we rotate above, or by visiting the example gadgets from our main page.
