How was this page made? [subject edited by moderator]

Hi, I am new to making websites so please forgive me my basic questions. I have seen a site that I really like and am wondering how it was made, and whether it can be made with DW. It is called africatravelresource.com. Could some one explain to me whether they have just linked 100s of background images or is this a really cool slider they are using with transparencies? Thank you for your help

You're asking a weird question there, boiled down it becomes "How do I do what you do, without doing what you do?"
It's difficult to answer.
If you're a graphic designer trying to make a quick website for yourself, Adobe Muse would probably be a better fit than Dreamweaver. You might be able to get something similar built there without understanding the underlying code. However, the drag and drop capabilities of Muse can create some exceptionally complex html. If you start your site off in Muse, it should stay there.
If you're not a designer to begin with, maybe one of those "create your own website" companies has a template you could use by clicking through their build process that has similar features to what you want. I have no experience with them, but some of the things I've seen are actually pretty decent from a few of them.
WordPress does offer some interesting themes. You might look into that if your hosting company offers WP installations. But if that's the route you choose, DW and Muse would be left out entirely. DW can be used to create a theme (by professional PHP coders), but once the site is "live" you pretty much only use the WP admin panel to make changes.

  • How was this site made. Need HELP!

    Hi everyone
    It's the first time I post here, so I hope some will understand my problem.
    I recently came upon this site http://weightshift.com and loved how they had made it dynamic or I think liquid. No mater how much it is scaled it looks great. It can be viewed on an iPhone, perfectly fitting the screen. Also when the site is scaled down and reaches a certain size, the logo jumps above the Contact and about buttons.
    I am currently studying at TAFE for Cert. IV and my dreamweaver teacher has no clue. So I have to figure it out by myself.
    Does anyone have any clue how this could be achieved. Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks in advanced.
    Manuel

    No surprise your teacher doesnt get it. when I did the cert IV the 30 html tutorials we did revolved around how great table based layouts are. suffice to say I didnt listen to that rubbish, and unfortunately the curriculum is just a wee bit behind where it really should be.
    what you are looking at is responsive design.
    you wont get any real relevant information regarding this at w3schools, its more for basics.
    it utilises media queries.
    http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-mediaqueries/
    yes technically you can use the dw fluid grid layout, but i'd advise that you learn the process behind how to style accordingly with media queries before using someones already setup concept of how to do it. (and I've never done a site with just 3 media queries, sorry dreamweaver, thats just wrong.) I personally utilise (and each to their own with this) a min 320+ style, a 320-480 (or therabouts), 480-767 (or therabouts) (3x) 768-1024 (landscape, portrait and for desktops), 1025-1300 (or therabouts), 1301-1440 (or therabouts) and a 1440+. I always start mobile first
    essentially the theory is to design your "design" flexible and where it "breaks" add a breakpoint. I try to make it not necessarily based on the device in theory but with the majority of phones sitting around the 320/640 mark, tablets around the 768/1024 mark. then laptops, desktops, and larger screens all seeming to congregate loosely around these higher figures...once youve set your parameters (and the above would cover the majority of devices) test, test, test!!!!
    remember good ol' IE will struggle with this. there are many work arounds, some better than other. I usually just offer a fixed width site for IE.

  • How was this trailer made?

    http://www.macheist.com/teaser
    I think it looks pretty cool - Apple Motion? Adobe After Effects? Both? If something else, can someone give me their best guess as well as what books to buy to learn how to do this?
    Already have a good 2007 FCP book (Apple Certified) and would like to get all the FCP (and other applications (Motion, Soundtrack, et-cetera) books.
    Thanks.

    Doubt they used Motion. Anything you see with rendered 3d models is usually cinema 4d or maya mixed with AE. Motion doesn't do model rendering (yet). So 3D stuff like walls or bank vaults, or whatever, is probably done with some other modeling software, in conjunction (typically) with AE.

  • How was this "flash" animation done?

    How was this "Flash" animation done?
    http://www.templatemonster.com/flash-templates/15812.html
    There is a "flash" that goes down the sholder of a man in this Flash intro page. It is a series of jpg images. Do you know how this can be done or which program was used? I want to chage the page of it.
    Thanks, Steve

    Hi Steve,
    I'm pretty sure it's done with a mask. You have the man picture layer and the border layout masked by a symbol (maybe a square or rectangle) above it.
    If you want to know how to use mask in Flash, just ask Google. There is a bunch of tutorial on the web.
    Hope it's a good start for you !

  • How was this done - movable shape that changes percentage

    I saw a presentation that had a pointer that the user could smoothly drag along a horizontal line, and when moving the pointer, the percentage underneath the pointer automatically changed. The pointer can be moved horizontally along the line, but cannot be moved vertically.
    How was this done --- Is this something that can be accomplished in Captivate, or was it done in another program and inserted into Captivate? See two examples below.

    AFAIK this can be done in Captivate, if you include some widgets (thinking about the Slider component widget of InfoSemantics). But widgets are not compatible with HTML5 output.
    For HTML5, Edge Animate could produce that kind of interactivity as well, and you can embed an OAM package in Captivate, using the App packager in CP7, and right away in CP8.

  • How was this done (Stacking)?

    Hello!
    How was this effect done? http://www.riccardomagherini.com/fine_art/, I think I know how it is finished in PS, but how do you shoot this?

    Hi Alex,
    this tool is usually called the Blur or soft-focus effect (translated from my German PS). Many programs offer this brush for applying to the effect. Often you can select the photo, create a soft edge selection and then make the selection using filter blurred or you yourself blur some of the image areas.
    And we have the tool "Unsharp Mask". For this purpose, only the original image and a blurred version are required. The layer structure, however, shows good results only if your program supports 32-bit color depth, like Photoshop.
    On the other hand, I'm sure you will get better explanations, by asking Riccardo Magherini himself at http://www.riccardomagherini.com/fine_art/contact/. I'm sure you will get answers marked of a professional competence and responsibility.

    Probably both.

  • I ignored a message saying I was the millionth visitor. Was this wise? The message gave a long code, two telephone numbers (one in Paris) and a count-down time limit. It was this that made me suspicious.

    A few days ago I received a message saying I was the millionth visitor and had won a prize which included money and a disneyland visit. I was given a long code, two telephone numbers (one in Paris) and a timed count-down of a few seconds (when I picked up the message). This made me suspicious and I ignored the whole thing. Was this wise?

    Yes, ignoring a message like that was wise.

  • How has this author made their widget full screen by default

    Get the sample of this book
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/abc-animals/id502272114?mt=11
    You can tap the word to hear it. It's clearly a widget right? But it doesn't behave like a normal html widget - it's full screen right from the start and doesn't have the x in the corner
    how has this been done?

    Try using a Keynote widget and check 'Full-Screen Only'.
    Make a slideshow in Keynote, then build a landscape-only book.

    These type of transitions are the easiest. Let me explain how
    it works.
    From frame 1 to 10 you have some motion tween - fading in.
    Than from frame 10 to 20 fading out, or motion out, like in
    your example motion out.
    On that 10th frame there is an action that picks a variable
    and go to frame in a
    movie clip accordingly. All the button does is sets variable
    and play
    the timeline, than timeline frame 10th action call the
    content and while
    the fading is done, the content has been changed.
    Button :
    on (release) {
    _root.pa = 2;
    _root.play();
    than frame 10
    MovieClipWithContent.gotoAndPlay ("p" + _root.pa);
    Inside MovieCLipWithContent make labels p1 p2 p3 p4 p5 p6 p7
    and so on....

  • Spacing menu links [subject edited by moderator]

    Starting from the basic initial setup, I am trying to move the sample Links so that they are underneath the title and side by side. Now they are almost all side by side, but the extra Links I added are dangling below the initial four Links. How do I space it properly? [content edited by moderator]
    Here's what I'm looking at. I'm trying to get them all side-by-side, and would also like to get it below "Guitar Site".

    1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the block elements. The elements within these blocks have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the block itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the block element and place a second block element within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design.
    2) No margin has been given to the columns since they are all floated. If you must add margin, avoid placing it on the side you're floating toward (for example: a right margin on a block set to float right). Many times, padding can be used instead. For blocks where this rule must be broken, you should add a "display:inline" declaration to the block element's rule to tame a bug where some versions of Internet Explorer double the margin.
    3) Since classes can be used multiple times in a document (and an element can also have multiple classes applied), the columns have been assigned class names instead of IDs. For example, two sidebar blocks could be stacked if necessary. These can very easily be changed to IDs if that's your preference, as long as you'll only be using them once per document.
    4) If you prefer your nav on the left instead of the right, simply float these columns the opposite direction (all left instead of all right) and they'll render in reverse order. There's no need to move the blocks around in the HTML source.

      float: right;

          <h2>Clearing Method</h2>
          <p> </p>
          <p>Because all the columns are floated, this layout uses a clear:both declaration in the footer rule.  This clearing technique forces the .container to understand where the columns end in order to show any borders or background colors you place on the .container. If your design requires you to remove the footer from the .container, you'll need to use a different clearing method. The most reliable will be to add a &lt;br class=&quot;clearfloat&quot; /&gt; or &lt;div  class=&quot;clearfloat&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt; after your final floated column (but before the .container closes). This will have the same clearing effect. </p>
        </section>
        <section>
          <h2>Logo Replacement</h2>
          <p>An image placeholder was used in this layout in the header where you'll likely want to place  a logo. It is recommended that you remove the placeholder and replace it with your own linked logo. </p>
          <p> Be aware that if you use the Property inspector to navigate to your logo image using the SRC field (instead of removing and replacing the placeholder), you should remove the inline background and display properties. These inline styles are only used to make the logo placeholder show up in browsers for demonstration purposes. </p>
          <p>To remove the inline styles, make sure your CSS Styles panel is set to Current. Select the image, and in the Properties pane of the CSS Styles panel, right click and delete the display and background properties. (Of course, you can always go directly into the code and delete the inline styles from the image or placeholder there.)</p>
        </section>
        <section>
          <h2>Backgrounds</h2>
          <p>By nature, the background color on any block element will only show for the length of the content. This means if you're using a background color or border to create the look of a side column, it won't extend all the way to the footer but will stop when the content ends. If the .content block will always contain more content, you can place a border on the .content block to divide it from the column.</p>
