There are two widget options for Skewz:
1) The dynamic Skewz widget allows you to tabulate the number of Skewz on a particular article as they occur. The widget will automatically update when an article is skewed.
eg. Before:
After: 
To have the dynamic Skewz widget on your site copy/paste the following in the article page:
<script type="text/javascript"> skewz_url = "PLACE HERE THE UNIQUE URL OF THE ARTICLE"; skewz_skin = "full"; </script>
<script src="http://www.skewz.com/javascripts/skewthis.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
2) The static Skewz widget will invite users to "Skew It" for any particular article. It will not however, reflect the number of Skewz, but rather retain the static "Skew It" image. Therefore, the static widget is quicker to render than the dynamic one.
eg. Before:
After: 
To have the static Skewz widget on your site copy/paste the following in the article page:
<a href="http://www.skewz.com/link/submit_link?url=PLACE HERE THE ESCAPED UNIQUE URL OF THE ARTICLE">
<img src="http://www.skewz.com/images/widget/widget_full.png" />
</a>
IMPORTANT NOTE: These widgets have been designed to be placed with individual articles, not on a main page of a site. In order for this widget to work correctly, YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY FILL THE UNIQUE URL OF EACH ARTICLE IN THE SKEWZ_URL VARIABLE. In some cases, this may need to be a back-end edit, done after the article has been published.
Example: A unique url of a typical blogger.com blog entry looks like this: http://blogname.blogspot.com/2007/07/title-of-entry.html
