"Hi, I'm Warren Cardinal founder of Lucid Crew in Austin, Texas. I'm going to show you a quick and easy way to build a game website. WordPress is an open source software that you can install on any hosting account and you manage your website remotely through WordPress. Once WordPress is installed on your surfer, you can use it to create any kind of site that you like. There's a full explanation on how to download and install WordPress at lucidcrew.com/ehow. So, we want to go to the edited section of our WordPress installation and we're going to switch to the game theme that I have installed and this game theme is called TriQ or TriQui. So, I'm going to activate that. So, now when I look at my WordPress page kind of looks like that since I don't have any games and so to find some games. I'm going to go to a plug-in called MochiAds and I've already imported the games from their instructions. So, now I want to do add games to blog. So, now see lots and lots of games that's added automatically to my blog. So, I can see these. I click on them. Goes to the game. Has an ad thing at the beginning and then we'll go into the game. Lets say that I wanted to add my own flash games to my site and not use these default games. I can go to plug-in called My Arcade Blog and activate that. Once that's activated. I'll have my arcade here and I can do import games and I can put the information about my own game or one that I have found on the Internet that I want to add to my site. Put that information there. So, I can see this is loaded. I can play the game and I have instant flash game website. To download all of the links and resources I use in this tutorial please visit lucidcrew.com/ehow.
