INTEGRATION OPTIONS
|
VRX Destination Content can be integrated into web sites by using a combination
of integration options: Quick Integration, which allows a destination marketing
web site to quickly and efficiently add a complete, one-page, visual
description of their area, and Recommended Integration, which allows a
webmaster to enhance existing destination marketing web site content with VRX
content.
Quick Integration
Quick Integration displays on one page all Maps, Virtual Tours and Text that
visually describe a destination. This integration option is appealing to
destination marketing organizations who want to showcase visual content on one
page only, or have minimal time or webmaster resources.
A web site visitor need only click one link to display all VRX content that
describes that destination.
Recommended Integration
Recommended Integration enables a destination marketing organization to
integrate each VRX Virtual Tour, Descriptive Text and Map separately throughout
a web site, to enhance existing text for each destination. Of course,
Recommended Integration can also be combined with Quick Integration if the
destination marketing organization so desires.
Recommended Integration uses hyperlinks, icons,
and thumbnails. These three options, and combinations of
options, allow VRX clients to incorporate VRX virtual tours, while maintaining
the integrity of the layout and design of their web sites.
The following paragraphs offer explanations and examples of how each format can
be used to incorporate virtual tours and interactive maps into your web site.

Hyperlink Format

Historic Rome Map

A hyperlink is a highlighted text caption that links your web
site visitors to a virtual tour of an attraction. Examples are provided below.
The hyperlink format is ideal for web sites that are short on space. The
hyperlink format is also used by web sites that list several attractions within
the same paragraph.
To use the hyperlink format in your web site, simply use the
code that we send to you as the hyperlink for specific words or attractions
listed on your page.

Icon Format

Interactive Maps
|
|
Virtual tours can also be linked to a web site
using an icon. This is a convenient format when a web site page is short on
space, or on pages that feature many virtual tours.
You can use the icon that is provided by VRX Studios, or you
can create and use your own.

Thumbnail Format

VRX Studios offers thumbnails, in three sizes: small, standard
and full. These thumbnails can be linked to a virtual tour, and are easy to
integrate with any web image.
You can also wrap text around the thumbnail to integrate the
virtual tour with the rest of your web site.
Small: 115 pixels x 112 pixels

Integrating VRX Interactive Maps

VRX's new interactive maps are the perfect way to
display and organize virtual tours on your website.
VRX virtual tours are very easy to integrate into your web
site. VRX interactive maps organize virtual tours in a truly interactive
environment. You can control which virtual tours your web site visitors will
see. Your web site visitors are able to see where each attraction is located,
in relation to other attractions on the map.
