Gallery/slideshow source needed

i need to build a gallery/slideshow for a site and am looking
for a great example code, or component as a starting place.
one key feature is that the users will need to be able to
logon and upload/manage their images on our server.
anybody know of good sources for this? thx much - have a gr8
day!

You can't change the look of the thumbnail in the embedded gallery widget. You can certainly try to use you're own HTML widget but the gallery effect will not be the same since it will only be in full-screen mode once the user taps on the widget image as opposed to having the ability to swipe through the widget right in the book. If that's fine with you, I recommend two sources: Get a widget using JS/HTML code from a place like Code Canyon, or if you don't want to mess with coding, you can use bookry or bookwiddgets.

Photo gallery / slideshow component using rss

hi.. i was wondering if anyone can throw some light on this
issue. i am thinking abt making a simple flash gallery / slideshow
that will get info from an rss feed (either from flickr or a
customized Gallery2.0 feed). there is already one at
www.afcomponents.com, but their support is slow and the product
layout is not customizable.
so, does anyone know if another such component? or even
better, a script that i can work on myself? any thoughts, comments
and ideas will be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance,

Hello lukeage7,
I've done a bunch of similar galleries. Are you familiar with
xml in Flash
at all? The easiest way is to create an empty movie symbol on
your stage
and give it an instance name (placeHolder) for example.
Create an xml file
with a list of your image names, and then use loadMovie to
load the first
node's image into your placeHolder movie symbol. Then all you
need to do
is create a var you can increment to load the 2nd image, 3rd
image, 4th image
etc. I can send you a sample if you want.
That said, I've also used this product and for the low price
it is pretty
robust:

Can an Adobe Bridge web gallery slideshow file be inserted in Dreamweaver as part of the homepage?

Hello. I am designing the homepage of my first website in Adobe Dreamweaver CS6. And I would like for the page to include a slideshow that automatically plays as soon as a visitor opens the webpage. I am interested in using Adobe Bridge to create the slideshow using the feature "web gallery." The tutorials that I've seen describe how to create the web gallery slideshow, then show how it appears when uploaded to the web as an html file through FTP to a server. It appears as a separate page. And I notice that the web gallery file is an index file. I would appreciate knowing how to include the html file as part of the homepage. Will simply renaming the file from being "index.html" to something like "my_first_slideshow.html" make possible including it in the site structure? Or will doing so cause it and the files attached to it to be inaccessable when viewed in a browser? If it can be included in the site, is an <iframe> needed to be in the code for the slideshow to fit into? Thank you.

Maybe you best try this question in the dedicated Dreamweaver forum?:

Gallery/slideshow widget with no yellow border around thumbnails?

Hi,
Does anyone know of a hack to get rid of the yellow border around Gallery thumbnails? Or, do you know of a third-party Gallery/Slideshow widget that has a cleaner look: thumbnails but no garish border?
Thanks!

You can't change the look of the thumbnail in the embedded gallery widget. You can certainly try to use you're own HTML widget but the gallery effect will not be the same since it will only be in full-screen mode once the user taps on the widget image as opposed to having the ability to swipe through the widget right in the book.

Autoplay for Bridge Web Gallery Slideshows

Hi all,
I feel like I've searched the entire internet looking for an answer to this question. Does anyone know how to set the Bridge CS4 Web Gallery Slideshows to start playing as soon as loaded?
I've dug around in all the output files and can't find an autoplay function anywhere. This seems like it should be a built in option for the gallery output.
Any help or suggestions would be VERY appreciated.
Thanks!

How to Resize Web Gallery Slideshow

I uploaded some photos of my wifes Xmas party
http://gallery.mac.com/kjritchie#100068&bgcolor=black
I elected just to allow viewing, no downloading. My understanding is each photo upload is 800x600. How do I prevent Web Gallery slideshow displaying these photos in full screen mode? 800x600 expanded to fill a 20" monitor looks bad.
Kelvin

Kelvin:
You can't. The software that generates the gallery and slideshow is server side and there are no files to edit to change the size. I suppose you could mount the iDisk, locate the gallery folder in the Web/Sites/_gallery folder and replace the 800 x 600 file with a full sized version. However, each photo has it's own folder and several different image files and they are not the same file name as what you have in the iPhoto library. The file used for the slideshow is named web.jpg. So you'll have to rename each file web.jpg and put it in the folder for that photo.
Happy Holidays
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How do I create my own favorite template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to templates, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get

First, how do I create my own favorite theme template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to already existing themes, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get. I just want to use a picture as my DVD cover, and then insert a slideshow. Also, when I try to burn my 8.5gb double sided slideshow, all that burns is the music. It is a large slideshow, a memorial on the life of my now deceased brother. This means a lot to me and to my family, and I am having so much trouble trying to burn it. I have gone into Project View and selected appropriately. The bar shows I have room to burn this DVD, but it does not burn. I have burned so many DVDs in the past, but this one just will not burn. I am so confused at this point. I will say this is the first 8.5gb I have attempted to create and burn. My specs list a 7.7gb or 4.7gb as operable....but there are no 7.7gb dvds. I had to purchase 8.5gb. Help? What am I doing wrong? I have spent so much time on this, and just cannot figure it out.

Final Cut is a separate, higher end video editor. The pro version of iMovie.
Give iPhoto a look at for creating the slideshow. It's easy to assemble the photos in an album in iPhoto, put them in the order you want and then make a slideshow of them. You can select from various themes and transitions between slides and add music from your iTunes library.
When you have the slidshow as you want use the Export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window and export with Size = Medium or Large.
Save the resulting Quicktime movie file in your Movies folder.
Next, open iDVD, choose your theme and drag the QT movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Then follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
The reason I suggest iPhoto is that I find it much easier to use than iMovie (except for the older iMovie 6 HD version). Personal preferences showing here.

Hi,
i want an slideshow/gallery for my site,
the perfect one is at http://uk.msn.com/
it's the first thing you see when you get there.
I've looked around and can't find a tutorial for it anywhere,
Does anyone know how this is made
or can give me a link to a tutorial?
Thanx

MSN is probably using something proprietary. Below you'll find some free slideshow and image gallery solutions that might work for you.

I want to create photo gallery similar to the url below. Is
this an off the shelf or built into flash.
If there's any tutorials that exist please inform. Thanks

time... there are plenty of tutorials out there for custom ones,
but for $8 its hard to pass up a pre-built... i know this doesnt
answer your question exactly but i figured i would give my 2 cents,

Photo Gallery Slideshow

I’m currently looking into updating our company
website. It was originally built in FrontPage and is just a basic
frames site.
The guy who built it used a function in FrontPage called
Photo Gallery and used the slideshow option to create the following
images on the page:
http://www.bluchip.gg/bc403.htm
I would like to do a similar thing in Dreamweaver but I'm
going to need it to be really really easy so the other guy can do
it.
The FrontPage Photo Gallery was very simple in that all you
had to do was add the images you wanted and it would resize them
all to your spec and then create the slideshow.
Is there anything in Dreamweaver (CS3) that does the same or
maybe an add-on?
Any help would be gratefully received.

> Is there anything in Dreamweaver (CS3) that does the

Not really. Do you have Fireworks as well?
> or maybe an add-on?
I have used the ImageGalleryMagic extension from PVII - it's
mighty
simple....

Web Gallery - Slideshow(s)

I have created my first web gallery - These are my issues when viewing the gallery on internet:
1. If you double click the first photo you see a rather small pic and a description of what the subject is about (hitting i [info] can give you the further info on the pic). Why is the photo not the same size as that shown when I select to view the gallery in slideshow?
2. When in a gallery if you click "Slideshow" it proceeds through the photos in the gallery at about 3 second intervals - how can I adjust the slideshow controls so that the turnover is slower, like 12 second intervals? I understand that a viewer can click "pause" to slow the process, but see 3 below.
3. When I review the gallery on my Powerbook, using Safari, as a slideshow, above the slide the description/explanation of what the pic is about is displayed. When I enter the website via Windows, I see the pic OK but there is no description of what it is about. How do you show the explanation of what the pic is about in Windows?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Vicj:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. 1 - it's just the nature of the beast and can't be changed. 2 - the software that controls web galleries is server side and there's no features changeable by the user except those in iPhoto while creating the gallery.
If you want to add a description to the picture that will be displayed change the title to the description you want to use. An easy way to do that is to first add your descriptions to the description field in iPhoto. Then use this Applescript to copy the description to the Title field: AppleScript to copy iPhoto Description to Title. Be sure to read the comments regarding the one error in the script that is easily corrected.
Later you can change the titles back to the file name (if that was what they were originally, by using the Photos->Batch Change menu option.

Creating large web gallery slideshow.

I have a large wedding shoot that has 611 images. But the Web module will only make a slideshow of 500 images. Any way to make it do this in one flash show?

You need to modify the Flash template.
On Windows the file is at C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.4\Shared\webengines\default_flash.lrwebengine. Similar place on Mac though it looks like a single file.
Copy that lrwebengine to C:\Users\john\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Web Galleries
Open the file galleryInfo.lrweb.lua
Look at line 21 and replace the following lines with this:
    title = LOC "$$$/WPG/Templates/Flash/Bluefire1=Lightroom Flash Gallery > 500",
    id = "com.adobe.wpg.flash.bluefire1modified",
    galleryType = "Flash",
    groupPath = "resources/mediaGroupData/group.xml",
    mainSWF = "resources/gallery.swf",
    maximumGallerySize = 50000,

IPhoto '08: Events, (Smart) Albums, Web Gallery & Slideshows ???

I recently upgraded to iPhoto '08 and I am confused.
I must admit I used iPhoto before to look at my pictures but I never bothered with any albums or slideshows or whatever, but now with more and more pictures I need to organize.
So this new iPhoto comes with all sorts of way to organize such as Events, (Smart) Albums, Web Galleries & Slideshows. Quiet frankly I am LOST as to what to use when or for what ???
Okay I can get Web Galleries is for posting on the .mac as a gallery. Why did they do this again if you iWeb that creates photo pages???? Why is this not integrated in iWeb????
Now moving on. What's the difference between Events, (Smart Albums) and Slideshows. They seem to be ways to organize your photos. BUT why have THREE of them? When to use which one?
Any help or comment appreciated as I am confused ....

Events, Smart Albums, Albums and slideshows are different. Here is a short explanation of each:
Events= Every time you import photos from your camera or via drag & drop a new Event is created. This is the basic (automatic) way that iPhoto organizes your photos. Events are date based and can be split or merged based on your preferences. For example, you go to a birthday party and take a few photos, a few days later you go to a picnic and take a few photos. When you import the images, iPhoto will split the pictures into two distinct events. (Check The iPhoto Preferences/Events for some options).
Albums= These are containers that you create to easily group photos in any way you prefer (ex. Combine photos from a couple of holiday parties into one album). You can drag and drop photos in Albums. When you delete a photo in an Album it does not get deleted from the main library. Albums contain links to the photos, not the actual photos. You can manually re-order the photos in an Album. It is always a good idea to create an Album first, edit and re-order your photos there and then create a slideshow, book or web gallery from the Album.
Smart Albums= These are Albums you create that have specific rules, they automatically get updated every time a photo meets the specific set of rules. Smart Albums (SA) can have one or more rules. ex. You have 2 different cameras and you automatically want to see the photos captured by each camera. You create 2 Smart Albums that contain the Rule = Camera Model > is > Nikon D40 (or whatever). Next time you import photos from that camera, the SA will show these photos automatically. (Note: These are links, but if you delete an image, unless you delete it permanently it will re-appear in the SA, as long as it still has the required value of the SA. You can sort by Keyword, Ratings etc using Smart Albums, and you can have multiple sort rules, like Keyword = Birthday and Rating is 5 stars.
Slideshows= iPhoto has 2 types of slideshows available. The first is the "quick" slideshow. You can select any Album or Smart Album click on the Play button, set the transition select the music and you are ready to go. The 2nd type, the Cinematic Slideshow, are albums created specifically as Slideshows. They contain photos you selected and you want to see on your screen in a slideshow presentation. You can set specific transitions between slides, set individual slide times, select music and specify where the Ken Burns effect will start in a slide and where it will end. They are more elaborate than the Quick slideshows.
Web Galleries = are a quick way to share photos with friends, you just select the Photos and click on the Web Gallery button. You set some basic options and publish. Visitors get to see the photos in 3-4 different views including a slideshow, but you can also allow the viewers to add photos to your web gallery. Every time you add a new photo to a web gallery album in iPhoto, it will update the web site when you click the little publish icon next to the name. You can also set tan option to make this happen at specific intervals. (Check the iPhoto Preferences/Web Gallery).
I hope this answered some of your questions. Good luck.
