Create A Slideshow Banner

I've seen this site referenced quite a bit in my searches on how to make a slideshow banner.
Would anyone be willing/able to make a step by step tutorial for this on putting all the info together, after downloading the forms etc.?
http://www.wyodor.net/iWebBlogTest/Wyodor_1/WebBanner.html

Thank you for reply and assistance.
I was doing some testing on my side regarding the size and if I do a single box rotaing ad, it will be 180 W x 220 H
If I do the banner style it will be 540 W x 220 H that will have 3 boxes similar to this:
Where the images will rotate right to left every 10 seconds and repeat once they have reach the last item.
The image holders will be 100 x 125
The fields that will change will be:
Name - Ex. Clear, 6" Polycarbonate Bud Vases, 12 Pack
Price - Ex. $26.28
Brand - Ex. Cambro: BV6CW-135
Image - URL http://www.deiequipment.com/core/media/media.nl?id=4239&c=562544&h=d2979ac8391cf36bfcb3
I am using Flash Professional CS5, I am not too familiar with the actionscripts yet, but I have done programming in the past so I can do research on how to work with those.
Once again, thank you for your help!

Create a Slideshow that pulls information from a database

I want to create a slideshow banner that will showcase our products. The slideshow will contain the image of the product, the name, the price, the item code and the link when someone clicks on it. Each week we update the best sellers and it can be from 5 to 15 different products. Similar to what we have now in our website www.deiequipment.com which now is static, we want to animate it and rotate the products like a slideshow.
The problem we are encountering is that we have to manually update the slideshow content.
We would like to know if there is a way through scripting or catalyst to connect to a database and simply update all these fields automatically. So for example if the database has 5 items, automatically will pre-fill each field listed above and the slideshow will have 5 products.
If we update the database now with 10 products, to update automatically. That way we can create 1 slide show, the time it takes to rotate to the next product, and add simple button controls to the slide show for next and back that will simply go through the loaded items.
I tried to do a research on how to do it online but some takes me to scripting, others to catalyst dabases, but none are specific to what I need.
As a note, the image will just be an image holder that will be updated with the image field in the database that points to the URL location of the image.
Any help is greatly appreciated! thanks

How do you create a scrolling banner in Dreamweaver CS4?

How do you create a scrolling banner/marquee in DreamWeaver 4? I can't find anything about scrolling banners in the documentation or in the several books I've searched. Thanks.

Dreameaver can't create something like that out of the box, you need to use some type of script for the 'scrolling' to work.
This is pretty good, with lots of variations:

You may find something listed here that may give you an idea:
http://www.1stwebdesigner.com/resources/57-free-image-gallery-slideshow-and-ligh tbox-solutions/
or go over to www.jquery.com (that's one of the popular frameworks being used at the moment for image slidehows/banners/galleries etc).

I have created a slideshow using i Photo. How do I burn it to disc so that I can play it on my DVD?

I have created a slideshow using i Photo.
How do I burn it to disc to play on a DVD.
I cannot access i DVD.
Is this the problem?
I have exported the slideshow as a movie quick time file.
What do I do next???

If your Mac is a new one, like mine, then it comes with a version of iLife that doesn't have iDVD and if so, there isn't an easy way to burn a DVD from iPhoto or iMovie that will play on a normal DVD player. There is quite a bit of correspondence about this, but I couldn't find a good answer, apart from this:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18460085#18460085
I ended up buying (via Amazon) a boxed version of iLife11, which has all the same software I already have, but with a copy of iDVD with it.
Seems to work well with iMovie, but at the moment, my copy of iPhoto has crashed - see:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18943719#18943719
Having only just transferred from a Windows machine to a Mac, it seems incredibly arrogant for Apple to think people don't use DVD players anymore.

Can I use more than one transition when creating a slideshow in IDVD

I want to use more than one transition in IDVD when creating a slideshow, is this possible?

Not so. Under Windows select Photos.
That will show the Media Browser in the lower right hand corner of iMovie.
Use the File ➙ New Project to create a new project. Select the photos from iPhoto you want to create a movie from and drag into the new project area.
From there add your transitions, music, etc.

Why can't i create a slideshow anymore?

I have been able to create umpteen slideshows in the past. Now, when I select photos, and try to create a slideshow, nothing happens. Any answers as to why I cannot create a slideshow? I am using an iMac 9,1. The iphoto is 09, version 8.1.2.

Thanks Terence, you are a genius!
I did as suggested. Created a new account, logged in, opened iphotos. No photos! Opened again by pressing alt key and selecting the correct library, and got the message that the photo library was on a locked disc. Did I want it repaired? I clicked yes, and after some considerable time, all the photos miraculously appeared.
I then tried to creat a small slideshow, and it worked. However, I could not access my itunes library from here.
Having seen that the slideshow will work from a different account, I then went back and tried from the original account again. I could not create a new slideshow here. But the slideshow i had created in the other account appeared on my list here. When I tried to play it, however, the computer hung. I could not get out of the slide show, nor could i force quit iphoto. I had to shut down and start all over.
As you say, there must be some problem with the main account.
By the way: when i logged in to the new account, the HD icon appeared on the screen. In my usual account, the HD icon (I think) used to be there, but has somehow disappeared!
Thanks for your valuable help.

How can i create a slideshow with the newest version of dreamweaver?

I am trying to figure out how to create a slideshow but i cannot find any explanations for the new version of Dreamweaver. Can anyone help?

DW doesn't make slideshows. You'll need to use a jQuery plugin or a 3rd party commercial Extension.
Do a web search for:
jQuery Cycle2
jQuery WOW Slider
jQuery Fancybox2
Primer for using jQuery Plugins

How can I create a slideshow that depicts only a version of a photo rather than the original? Since the original and new versions are saved together, the aperture slideshow often choices the original rather than the desired version to display.

There are two things we use the name "Slideshow" for in Aperture: a Slideshow Album, used for making Slideshows, and the Slideshow that is made. (Imho, it is a design mistake to not call the containers used to create Slideshows, Books, etc., "Albums".)
The Slideshow will use the Album Pick from any Stack. A good way to use Aperture is to promote the Image you want to regularly use (such as, for example, a Version with adjustments) to the top of the Stack. This makes it the Stack Pick, and will be the default Album Pick. If you haven't done that, you can still change the Album Pick for any Stack in a Slideshow Album. Expand your Stack(s), select the Image in each Stack that you want to be the Album Pick (and thus shown in the Slideshow), and "Stacks➞Set Album Pick". (Note the keyboard shortcut; there is also a Toolbar icon for this.) The change is immediate. The Slideshow will always show the Album Pick (or, if there is not one, the Stack Pick) for every Stack in your Slideshow Album.

How do I create a slideshow in PSE 8.0 and share it on my website using Premiere elements 7.0. I

I have created a slideshow in PSE 8.0 but how do I get it into Premiere Elements 7 to create a video I want to show in my website? Do I have to buy Premiere Elements 8.0 surely ther must be a way to pass files?

Adobe is making it difficult for people who have Photoshop Elements 8 and Premiere Elements 7.
If you also have Photoshop Elements 7, I suggest that in the future you consider making your slideshows in Photoshop Elements 7 because it of course does support transfer to Premiere Elements 7. Or you can make the entire slideshow in Premiere Elements 7.
The only option that I can identify for making a file of your PSE 8 slideshow is to do a WMV file from the PSE 8 slideshow output command.
This approach has the disadvantage of doing a compression in PSE to make the WMV file and then doing another compression in Premiere Elements 7 for whatever format you will use to upload to your website.

How Do I Create A Slideshow in Iweb?

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.

Newbie having trouble creating a Slideshow with the Animation Panel.

I know it's a much more complicated/advanced way to create a slideshow. But, I know it can be done.
I will explain exactly what I do, the steps that I take. In my own newbie opinion, I think I'm just missing a step somewhere. Maybe I'm missing two or three steps. Hopefully somebody will be able to help me.
Thank you in advance, if you do help.
1.I open the program Adobe Bridge
2. Then I select all images in a folder, then I utilize the review mode & deselect the photos I do not want to use.
3. Then I open the selected images into Photoshop. (If you haven't already figured it out, I have Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended)
4. I clicked on Windows menu >arrange >Tile. That way all of my images are right there & ready for utilization. (At this point, none of the images have been clicked on yet.)
5. Then I open the animation panel & create a white blank background for the first frame.
Here is where I run into the problem. I know how to add extra frames, that's easy enough.
I also know that when I add the extra frame, it makes a duplicate of the previous frame.
My problem is trying to get that extra frame to reflect the next image I would like to display in this little slideshow and so on and so forth for the next, maybe 20 images.
Then what I would like to do is randomize the transitions with things like dissolve, honeycomb, fade in & fade out. With other options if there are any.
I would like to create a fancy slideshow is all.
I have read all of the help manuals, all 600+ pages. This is how far I got. I even did a search in the Adobe community. Even those articles don't quite tell you how to do this. So, I probably could have done a lot more homework. But. I'm starting to get frustrated with it.
Hopefully someone here will be able to help me with this. Thank you Obi-Wan Kenobi in advance. :-)

Thank You Thank You Thank You JJ Mack!
That was exactly what I was looking for & it worked perfectly. :-)
I have one more question if you would be so kind to help me with.
I was wondering if there was a way to add transitions, i.e. dissolve, fading in & fading out, split, reveal, random bars, vortex stuff like that.
I was also wondering if there was a random option for this.
If I have to add them in manually, that's fine with me. It would be really nice to be able to add some different transitions between frames.
Once again, thank you in advance for your help.

I've got a new iMac with Mountain Lion OS. Created a slideshow complete with music in iPhoto. Every time I try to export to iPhoto slideshow folder, it freezes. Help!

I've got a new iMac with Mountain Lion OS. Have created a slideshow complete with music in iPhoto, but every time that I try to export it to an iPhoto slideshow folder, it gets halfway through and freezes. This has been going on for a couple of days. I've tried opening iPhoto holding down the option key, but it doesn't make a difference. Any advice, please?

Upgrade to v9.4.1 or
Trash the HP Plug in from /Library/Application Support/iPhoto
There are two libraries where this plugin might be
HD/ Library
and
HD/Users/Your Name / Library
(On 10.7 or later: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)

I just created a slideshow dvd in imovie, and when I hit finalize it said that it would take 7 hours to finalize. I've only had my macbook pro for 6 months, and this is the first imovie I've done...is this normal? If not how can I speed up this process?

Hi
Time needed can depend on several things.
• less than 5 GB free space on Start-up (Mac OS) hard disk = Redicolous long times AND a DVD that most probably will not work OK
Medicine - I never go under 25GB free space
• Use of strange file formats into iDVD - can force it to de-code first then re-encode - this can take long long times
I use
Video - StreamingDV as from miniDV tape Cameras - or QuickTime Movies Converted to StreamingDV
Audio - .aiff 16-bit 48 kHz - (no .mp3, .wma etc)
• Use of old Mac - My G4 600MHz took about 24 hour per hour movie. my dG5 - about 2 hours per hour (I use Pro Quality encoding)
• Pro Quality encoding - takes about x2 to process a movie
Yours Bengt W

After creating a slideshow in iDVD and burning it to a blank DVD-R disk, can I later add another slideshow?

After creating a slideshow with my photos in iDVD and burning it to a bland DVD-R disk, can I used the unused space on the disk to add another slideshow at a later date?

Thanks!

But this method is severely outdated, and you are advised to use something like Cycle2 instead in your web pages.
