How to add spins to your website

An interactive 360 spin needs to be hosted on a server, very much like a website does.

A spin is made up of a series of photos and its own code/viewer that allows the images to be interactive and give the spin experience.

It is very similar to embedding a YouTube video onto a web page. YouTube provides you with an embeddable code that you can place into a specific section on your website, which then pulls in the video within the YouTube video player. Hosted spins take the exact same concept but instead of displaying a video onto your web page, it takes the spin images within the 360 viewer, giving you the capability of the spin.

With Virtual Circle, you have the option to either let us hosting your interactive spins or host them yourself.
