Autoviewer slideshow in iweb- transparency?

Hi guys,
Does anyone know how i can make my autoviewer slideshow have a transparent background so the page behind shows through around the photos?
Right now the frame colour and background colour in the webexport options are: background 181818 and framecolour 181818. Any advice would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Ben (Brazil)

I took you advice, as given in this thread and now my slideshow works. iWeb has a problem with Verizon servers, with regard to SlideShow.

How did you edit .js?
Give this a try, edit this file:
http://mysite.verizon.net/macericpet/Home/SlideShow_assets/openSlideShowWindow.j s
Open it with text editor, you will find two functions:
function openSlideShow(initialIndex)
function openSlideShow2(initialIndex, language)
You can swap them, rename openSlideShow to openSlideShow2
and rename openSlideShow2 to openSlideShow

    How do I Create a slideshow in Iweb with arrows to right and left, just like this link:

    Thanks in advance!

    It's done with java script. Here is one example on this demo page: AutoViewer which is created in iPhoto with the Flash Album Exporter plugin.
    Another source is Jalbum. It have over 100 skins/themes, one of which should match what you want.

  • Slideshows in iweb

    Hello. I made a slideshow in iphoto. How do you put it into an iweb website and be able to use the features for slideshows in the inspector of iweb? Thanks.

    As pointed out above, the features for slideshows in iWeb's inspector are for slideshows generated from iWeb — not from iPhoto. But you can put your iPhoto slideshow in any iWeb template page by doing the following...
    Select your slideshow in iPhoto's panel on the left. Click on File > Export... and save the QT movie file to the Desktop. Then drag that .mov file from the Desktop to an iWeb page (any template). Then, to control your slideshow movie's appearance and behavior when it's viewed in a browser, click on iWeb's QuickTime Inspector tab.
    By the way, you can create a more efficient slideshow movie in iPhoto by selecting the photos you want included in the slideshow and choosing File > Export > QuickTime tab. As above, you would then drag the movie file to an iWeb page. With this approach you won't have so many configurable options, but the resulting slideshow movie file will be very small and thus quick to appear when your web page is viewed.

  • Can I make the browser in iWeb transparent?

    Can I make my browser image in the iWeb transparent somehow? I do my photo editing in Aperture, and can't find a transparency there.  Using the graphics inspector transparency in iWeb does not seem to work on the uploaded browser image. I like the look of transparency, I'm not doing this to add another colour layer behind the image.... I have logged many hours on Aperature, but have never come up with the look of varying transparency against a white ground. Would I need a white ground if I ever get my image transparent?
    Thanks ahead for any thoughts.
    mak

    No.  The browser background image can't be a transparent background image.  It needs to be a solid color or an image. Using an image with a transparent background just causes the transparent background to display as white.
    An image with a transparent background can be used for the page background.

  • How to publish a photo book and slideshow in iWeb

    Is it possible to (or how do you) publish a photo book and slideshow in iWeb created either in Aperture or iPhoto?

    Here's an example of E Books. They're created in iWork and loaded into iWeb as a compressed PDF for download. The photo of the front cover is used for the link.
    http://roddymckay.com/SongBooks.html
    http://www.maisonlavoie.com/Catalogue.html
    For a larger file, you can upload it to a folder on your server and create a link to it from your website.

  • Using Aperture 3 slideshows on iWeb 09

    Hi - I am trying to use aperture 3 slideshows on iweb instead of flash but the quality is lacking - the sharm movie files are over 30mb so when compressed to around 10mb loses image quality
    see here : http://web.me.com/ruperteden/casasnaareia (click on image)
    the movies are slow to load on Firefox and do not load at all using Google Chrome ?
    Does anybody have a solution to increase image quality keeping files small enough ?

    Thanks in advance !

    OK but the problem I am having is maintaining crisp image quality while compressing QT files of over 30mb generated by Aperture slideshow export ?
    also the movies only really play on Safari - other browsers are clumsy and slow ?
    Can anyone suggest an alternative ?

    On the page it says :
    Put a texbox with a unique word on the page.
    Then add a HTML Snippet.
    The HTML Snippet has this code :
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    var bodyLoad = parent.document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0];
    load = bodyLoad.getAttribute("onLoad");
    bodyLoad.setAttribute("onLoad", load + "function(){VideoJS.setup();}");
    var headID = parent.document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0];
    var newScript = parent.document.createElement('script');
    newScript.type = 'text/javascript';
    newScript.src = 'zencoder/zencoder.js';
    headID.appendChild(newScript);
    // -->
    </script>
    This is the page iWeb creates from the HTML Snippet.
    http://www.wyodor.net/Demo/html5//HTML5_Zencoder_files/widget1markup.html
    Here's the zencoder.js file :
    http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/html5/zencoder/zencoder.js
    It adds extra HTML code :
    http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/html5/zencoder/video-js.css
    http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/html5/zencoder/video.js
    and then displays this file :
    http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/html5/zencoder/index.html
    The page has all the code to display .m4v, .ogg, .webm and flash.
    In the end the textbox is behind the movie. I only needed it to find the location on the page (the top left corner) to display the video.

  • Slideshow in iWeb won't work on my server - not .Mac,

    My Photos page, created with a template, is giving me a 404 msg. (SlideShow.html not found on this server) whenever I go to click on the SlideShow icon. My site is http://www.theweetman.net.
    However, when I run the site from my desktop files, the slideshow works.
    Does the site have to be uploaded to a .Mac server to work on-line?
    BTW - I used Fetch 5.2 to upload my files, and the SlideShow.html file is where it is supposed to be. Please Help!

  • Flash xml slideshow in iWeb not working

    Hallo
    I am really struggling to get a Flash xml slideshow to work.  I have used Flash Slideshow Maker app, which creates a slide.xml, .swf and .html file and everything is published in one folder "slideshow" on a local disk.
    I am using the following code and it works perfectly when viewed in iWeb:
    <OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0, 40,0"

    But as soon as I publish it to FTP with following code, it displays the slideshow but NOT the photos or thumbs:

  • Adding a Flash-Type Slideshow in iWeb

    I want to add a slideshow to my home page, but not the kind of slideshow that has a bar of thumbnails and an enlarged version of the selected image. I'd like a frame that automatically plays a slideshow of images that play for a few seconds with a simple transition. Is this something I can create in iMovie and then import or even in iPhoto? I know you can't use Flash itself, which is fine since I don't know the program, although I'd learn it for this purpose if it was possible to use it.
    All thoughts are appreciated. If interested, the site is www.jrcphoto.net
    Thanks
    Jim

    Jim ~ You can create a QuickTime movie slideshow in iPhoto. Here's an example of a fast loading, looping embedded slideshow (not mine):
    http://www.heese-cadieux.com
    ...and done like this:
    iPhoto > select photos > File > Export... > QuickTime tab ...set width and height, etc.
    Then iWeb > Media button > Movies tab ...drag in your movie created above by iPhoto.
    Then iWeb > Inspector > QuickTime tab ...settings.
    Note: The above generates a QT slideshow of small file size and thus appears quickly in a web browser.

  • How can I change the Slideshow in iWeb 08???

    I've searched and searched and don't see to find an answer - I used to swap out slide show assets in iWeb 06 for a much better way of navigating through my photos. That's no longer an option in 08 - anyone have any alternative slideshows for 08?
    In 06, the alternative would pop up on top of the screen and the user could then click on the left or right of the pix to move -
    I hate the new slideshow - too long to load and the images are too small.

    Here's what I'm talking about...
    http://www.jeffulrich.com/photography/bluebonnets.html
    if you hit slideshow or any of the pictures, there's a secondary window that pops up for a much cleaner experience. I'd like to get that back in iWeb 08 - now I'm understanding that it uses Java and it's completely different.
    Just wish there were some other alternatives - I really don't like to Out of Box slideshow.
