Hi,
Thanks for your nice comment.
From FAQ (http://www.fuzz.com/corp/support?tab=faq) it seems follows that currently impossible to edit mixtapes and probably no possibilities to copy it to other user page. It possible only to get script and to place it in websites that allow to do it (like [url=http://webwidgets.ning.com).]http://webwidgets.ning.com).[/url]

There is a trick how you can create mixtapes from your playlists easily:
http://www.fuzz.com/mixtapes/create?playlistId=
When you go to your playlist there should be an ID # and you just plug it in after the = .
Then it remains to follow instructions, clicking on your choices and uploding your image at the very end to place it somewhere within created mixtape.
Pls let me know if you need some screenshots.
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your comment on my page. I enjoy your music and wish to promote it with Welcome application in Hi5 and Orkut. Currently busy with improving application, but will post soon some tips and tricks on how to create flash widgets from Fuzz playlists. There is a trick how you can create mixtapes from your playlists easily: http://www.fuzz.com/mixtapes/create?playlistId=
When you go to your playlist there should be an ID # shown in the browser's url for playlist's page and you just plug it in after the = . Once created, there is shown embed code to use it with other web sites. See http://webwidgets.ning.com/video/video/show?id=1472141%3AVideo%3A5610 for my example. More sofisticated flash widgets can be created with Sprout Builder http://sproutbuilder.com/. Such widgets can be shown to thousands of Hi5 and Orkut users with my Welcome app (see my blog for more details). Please write me if you are interested and we will figure out how to do it better.
