Do you know the very nice slideshows that Airtight can provide for your web site? Here are two examples: SimpleViewer demo and PostcardViewer demo. Now you can create these slideshows directly from iPhoto!

Download and install the CustomHTMLExport export plugin for iPhoto:

Then launch iPhoto, select the album or individual photos you want, choose File: Export, then click the first tab, CustomHTMLExport. Now select either the SimpleViewer or PostcardViewer template from the pop-up at the bottom. After a bit of processing time, your Flash slideshow will be saved in the folder of your choice, ready to be uploaded to your web site.

[robg adds: The CustomHTMLExport plug-in seems to work fine with the latest iPhoto. I hadn't heard of either the plug-in or the Flash-based slideshows before. Since both are free, and the results quite nice (if you don't mind Flash), I felt it worth sharing.]
