Create your own Web page to Flicker Compare a set of your images

This Web site is used to create your own Flicker Compare Web page of specific images and description of those images. The images (GIF or JPEG) must reside on your Web (HTTP) or FTP server. The generated Web page will let users select exactly two images to flicker and then will start Flicker on those images. After the created Web page is created by press GENERATE WEB PAGE after filling in the form you should save it for your own use on your web server.

The generated Web page can be used to select a pair of images for Flicker Comparison. You can see some examples of biomedical problem domain specific Flicker-Compare Web pages on the Flicker home page.

Notice:
Because of resource limitations, the NCI Flicker Server is to be used only for scientific data.
