Inserting a flash photo gallery in a column
Hi
I usually work with frames but I now started a new site using
the default HTML 2 columns template. One of the columns will hold
my main content. I'm trying insert a flash photo gallery in the
column but this gallery (SimpleViewer) has its own index.html file.
Is this possible and how can I do it?
Thanks!
Hi Anthony:
Have you tried simply applying iMovie's 'Flash" effect to the slug?

Adding a Flash photo gallery on DW
So, I'm trying to add a flash photo gallery on my site. I am very new to this and cant seem to figure out how to do it exactly.
I've found free templates online and downloaded the files. But I am unsure where to go from there. Like I said, I very unexperienced with this program, I did find the add flash option, but am unsure which files to add.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank youHi
The documentation confirms what I have written in my previous post it is controlled by an xml file.
Copy all the files required as indicated by the documentation into the required folder and open the gallery.xml file in dreamweaver.
Insert the images file locations into the xml file as indicated in the example. Important - the location of the files MUST represent where they would be if referenced from the html page you are inserting the image gallery into.
This means that it is probably better if you create the xml file in the same file position as the html page and the copy this file into the required position in the gallery folder that they suggest you create.

NEWBIE: Flash photo gallery! Images are pixelated:(
Greetings everyone. I created a Flash photo gallery using
gifs. While most of the images are acceptable visually, a bunch of
them are quite pixelated.
I read online that I am supposed to use vector graphics
whenever possible, but not all images where created as vector
graphics.
I have a few questions:
If I create the image in illustrator, what format should I
save it as to be used in a Flash gallery? If I create the image in
Photoshop what format should I save it as?
Lastly, is it true that Flash will load vector graphics
quicker than gifs?
Any info would be appreciated! Oh yeah, my site is
inthemixgraphics.comif you create an illustrator file, actually drawing with the
tools rather than just importing a bitmap and exporting it again,
it will indeed give you a vector file you can work with. you can
even export it as images that are readable by flash-- however,
you'll get the best looking stuff if the vector is basically
rewritten in flash. Import a (dot)eps file into flash, and break it
apart. Look at how the objects maintain their shape.
Now publish the thing and look at the bandwidth viewer. Is
the filesize much smaller than if you imported the .jpg? It should
be, but at least there is a way to check it.
I get the most pixalation from images when I'm forced to
scale .png's down by less than a perfect %. Its weird.
If you're loading externally, I'm not entirely sure the
correct process to bring an optimized vector in, as my thoughts are
that it would be the actual size of the .eps image (or .swf if you
can export to that) itself.
--I hope this makes some sort of sense, and if it doesn't
you'll have to forgive me.

Flash not displaying photos in Flash photo Gallery
I have several web sites that use a flash photo gallery to display the photos. All worked until a few months ago when the photo were not displayed to users who used Mozilla Firefox, or MAC users using Safari for their browsers. The albums were blank, the thumbnails were blank. Yet if you used Google Chrome or Internet Explorer, all photos displayed perfectly. I have been to the Firefox forums and they point to Flash. I was using Flash 11.5.502.146, then I downgraded to Flash 10.3. To my surprise all photos display now on my Firefox browse V18.0. So there is definitely a problem with the newer Flash displaying photos in a flash gallery. What can be done to fix this?

Hello,
I am a photographer interested in designing a photo gallery
website.My question is how are the special effects created in Flash
for when a thumbnail is clicked and the photo downloads into the
picture viewer? (such as the photo fading in , the photo is
assembled from small blocks, the photo downloads from left to
right, the photo downloads after a flash of light) Is there a name
for these effects? Thank you so much, WendyWonderwendy wrote:

These are some complex components/files you can get free off
the net:

This particular sample is the closets to what you are looking
for. It is XML
driven so all the files information can be edited w/o
changing the Flash movie.
You can define 9 transitions along the image name and the
rest happens automatically.
There are many more samples online, search for stuff like
"flash photo gallery"
or "flash gallery", some free some shareware but definitely
plenty.

Flash Photo Gallery Image Rollover Help
Ok I was wondering if anyone could help me with this I have
created a flash photo gallery which reads from an xml file. It uses
the following action script
myPhoto = new XML();
myPhoto.ignoreWhite = true;
myPhoto.onLoad = function(success) {
//portfolioTag = this.firstChild;
numimages = this.firstChild.childNodes.length;
spacing = 70;
for (i=0; i<numimages; i++) {
this.picHolder = this.firstChild.childNodes
this.thumbHolder =
thumbnails.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnail"+i, i);
this.thumbHolder._x = i*spacing;
this.thumbLoader =
this.thumbHolder.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnail_image", 0);
this.thumbLoader.loadMovie(this.picHolder.attributes.thmb);
this.thumbHolder.title = this.picHolder.attributes.title;
this.thumbHolder.main = this.picHolder.attributes.main;
this.thumbHolder.onRelease = function() {
loader.loadMovie(this.main);
title_txt.text = this.title;
myPhoto.load("xmlphoto.xml");
I want to add in a rollover effect to the gallery similar to
the one in Flash Gallery 1 in photoshop
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=2961
Would it be possible to take one of the as files from the Flash
Gallery source and intergrate it into my gallery or would I be
better just adding the rollover effect myself?the thumbnail (or its unique parent if you setup this up
without fore-thought) should be a movieclip that stores a reference
to the larger image's path.
search google for flash gallery tutorial. there are bound to
be lots of tutorials. -
Flash Photo Gallery Template 3 for CS2
I am trying to build a flash photo gallery using template #3

Just jump into the cold water and soon you will be swimming.
First try to load any pictures at all, later deal with the
thumbnails, even later with greyed out and so on.

How to make Web Photo Gallery with 3 columns of thumbnails?
Hi all
I have used web photo galery to build a few sites, but always with thumbnails in a single, vertical column, within a frame that scrolls. and i have never mch liked that scrollbar.
I have come across this page:
http://www.mariannekolb.com/recent.html
which, as i look at the code, may not even be using web photo gallery, but is very similar.
anyhow, does anyone in this group have any idea how this multiple column thumbnail (without scroll bar) is accomplished?
thankshowsthisforaname wrote:
I see how the css works, and it is much superior to alternatives I have seen.
But I fear I may be overlooking something: are you manually coding the html, writing the captions, and creating the thumbs? or is there a program that generates these?
Manually coded the CSS. Used Photoshop to optimize images, watermark them and create thumbnails.
Used Dreamweaver to insert thumbnails, full-size images and caption text.
If you want software to do the heavy lifiting for you, look at jAlbum.

How to setup a flash photo gallery?
Is there an easy way to setup a set of flash (.swf) files in a photo gallery setting with Dreamweaver?
Don't use Flash for this. It's a dead web technology owing to all the smartphones and tablets that don't support SWF/FLash.
You would be much better off using jQuery which has wide support.

Searching for Flash Photo Gallery with numbered navigation menu.

Creating flash photo gallery with Bridge
This may not be the best way of creating a flash gallery but
I thought I would try it since I'm new to this and it seems faster
then editing all those photos.
When I create the photo gallery using Adobe Bridge and then
try to open the Flash Movie file to edit the movie it tells me
"Cannot open a protected movie"
Does this mean that I cannot edit the movie after Bridge
creates it or is there a way around this?Welcome Alex -

If you ZIP each gallery, a simple link to the zipped archive will offer the visitor
