Need help placing images

Hey everybody hows it going? Any help you could give me would
be greatly appreciated!
Here is my problem. I am working off a template and have been
able to do everything I want so far but ive run into a problem.
Check my site to follow along
Shine Media House (Click
Here). Whenever the user clicks on About, Services or Contact a
random image appears along with the background on the corresponding
page. I need to be able to link it to a specific image. I found the
action for the random sequence and it reads as follow,
(_root.link !== 3) {
_root.pic_num = (Math.ceil(Math.random()*105));
Anybody know a way to fix my problem? It probably is really
simple I just have no clue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

This is a perfect answer. I am now able to specify what
number image from an array of images. Now, is there a way to
specify different photos for the three different buttons?
I am thinking that is what the
if (_root.link !== 3)
piece is about.
Any thing would be great!!!
Thanks!
I can post the fla file somewhere if that would help!

Need help placing images on separate layers

I'm a novice to Javascript but I've been trying to learn. I have a project where i need to place muliple images from a folder onto separate layers (same page) in a template. I tried to modify "ImageCatalogue" script within InDesign to disastrous results. On another thread someone was kind enough to give me a short script "Objects to Layers" written by Kasyan Servetsky. This was very helpful but not exact to my needs so now I'm starting from scratch. I've been playing with the following code trying to get it to work. It doesn't and I'm getting frustrated. I keep changing this line but it keeps coming back as "undefined":
myImage.place(newLayer);
Can someone please point me in the right direction? Is my coding too simple? The end comments are my wish list of add-ons should I ever get these layers working.
Thanks for your help!

Need help placing image behind design

I am currently designing a DVD case for a wedding client. I have everything on it completed, except that I cannot send the picture behind the design, so that it is only visible through the circular opening.
I've tried rearranging layers, changing visibility, everything.
This unfortunately won't let me attach a screen grab of the photoshop window, hopefully my description is clear. Thanks so much in advance!

Hi Amunzphotography,
Unfortunately I am not sure what is the problem here. If you are rearranging the layers that should do the trick.
Could you take a look at this document, it explains how to share screenshots on the forums.

Need help placing photo image in laptop screen of a video...

I have footage that is both zooming and panning, and need a photo image to fit within the laptop screen space during the duration of the pan/zoom. Should I use "Track Motion" accompanied with key-framing in 2D? Does this make sense? Is there an easier way to achieve this, or is that the way to go?
Here is a rough take of the clip of which I speak. In reality, we will be placing the same image on both the HDTV and the laptop in the shot. Hopefully, this will make what I have said above a little more clear. Hope you can help. Thanks much.

If you have CS4 then I would recommend using Mocha for AE (a planar tracking software from imagineers system that comes bundled with AE CS4). It's basically designed for the kinds of stuff you described. There are some helpfull tutorials on the imagineer systems's website:

This is the type of code it has a hard time getting the image
becuase it doesn't have a regular IMG tag.
<div style="float: left; width: 82px; height: 59px;
overflow: hidden; background: url(
http://pix.crash.net/motorsport/80/388493.jpg);
background-position: center center; background-repeat: no-repeat;
margin: 1px;" onMouseOver="showTipGallery(Stoner, Australian MotoGP
2007);" onMouseOut="clearTip();">
Is there a way to modify this code to make it be able to look
for the backround: url?? I am thinking that woul help it.. It knows
that an image is there.. It just doesn't know what to do with
it.

How difficult is it for you to do a google image search for large images of this subject?
While you appear to be doing this project for an educational endeavour and can get away with mild copyright abuse as "fair use", you probably should not expect the participants in this forum to 1) work for Disney either as a direct employee or as a contractor and 2) offer their copyrighted work for free.
If you really want to impress a teacher and a future employer, you would use your own art. Why dont you create your own movie concept? Suppose you and your classmate are up for the same employment position. Who do you think will get hired if you show work that is not all your own, while your classmate has produced all of his/her own work?

Is this the senario that you are talking about?

Need Help With Image Gallery

Hey all, I need a simple image gallery to load when you click a button. I've tried shadowbox but have had absolutely zero luck. I'm not sure how to load it from a flash file and I know there is work that has to be done outside of flash like in the root folder. All I need is for a simple image gallery, nothing fancy, to open when I hit a button. If anyone could explain how to use shadowbox in lamens terms or knows how to easily script a gallery that would be amazing.

What script version is your target? AS2 or AS3

So frustrated! Need help positioning image...

Hi folks...
I am learning CSS in fits and starts, and clearly I don't have a good enough grasp on it. I hope someone can help me.
I created this page, and tried to place an image in the large "main content" area to the right of the slideshow. It didn't work, kept getting shifted elsewhere. So I specified it as the background image for that div instead... It looks fine in Firefox and Safari (I'm on a Mac), however, a colleague with Internet Explorer 7 on a PC says that it shows up way down at the bottom of the page after the slideshow
I've looked at all the ways to insert the image but none of them work. I know I must be missing something very simple. Can anyone help?

The width of your #mainConent <div> is too wide hence in IE it is displaced to beneath the side bar.
Change it to 560px wide and also add float: left; as shown below:

Need help Loading images with selection on a form field?

So I'm kind of a newb.. I can do basic forms but I need to set up a form field drop down box that will give me the ability to load images correlating to the users choice. I'm at a total loss for where to start, so ANY help would be appreciated. If you know of any good books or tutorials on the subject please share.
Thanks in advance

I recently updated my computer to mountain lion and after doing so my computer would no longer boot up. I took it to the apple store and they told me that the hard drive was damaged and needed to be replaced. They were booting my computer with an external drive and in doing so could access my computers HDD. Upon starting to drag and drop files to a new hard drive I started to get a lot of -36 errors. I proceeded to go go,e and create my own bootable thumb drive and try doing the same process with more time to look through it. I have up till now been able to copy most of my files but have run into a problem with iPhoto.
I have been searching around for a while now and have yet to find a method that helps me in my particular situation so I am now asking for help myself. I will explain what my current system of file recovery is and see if anyone can help me out.
I have since then replaced the HDD in my computer and purchased a SATA external HDD enclosure for the original drive. This allows me to still access all files and folders from the original drive. I have managed to recover a majority of the files but have recently run into a problem with the iPhoto library. Every time I try to drag and drop the iPhoto library to my new HDD it fails after "transferring" 2.02GB and tells me it has encountered a -36 error because some files cannot be read or written. I believe I am using iPhoto '09, I will check and confirm that later.
I am looking for a way to open iPhoto's library and access the image files it seems to be hiding from me. Please understand that I cannot open the iPhoto library either, I have lost access to the library entirely and want to see if there are any image files that I can save. I dont have the computer backed up recently and want to save my photos. Thanks for looking and I'm hoping someone can help.

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command). Rebuild it to the Pictures Folder. This might overcome the -36 issue.
(This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.)
Failing that you're into recovering your Originals from the damaged Library and creating a new Library and starting over from scratch.

Need help with image gallery and preloader

Here is my portfolio site currently. WWW.PALMEI.COM. When you go into the the galleries you can view the images; the images load and it's all working fine. But if I was to go back on the page before the image was to load the image loads later which is then in the way of everything and cannot be deleted or removed. What would a solution be for solving this problem. Also, my preloader is not working at all as you can tell.
Here is my code in frame 1 for the perloader:
[AS]
stop();
loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, updatePreLoader);
function updatePreLoader(evtObj:ProgressEvent):void
                    var percent:Number = Math.floor((evtObj.bytesLoaded*100)/evtObj.bytesTotal);
                    preloader_txt.text = percent+"%";
                              if (percent==100) {
                                        nextFrame ();
[/AS]
Thank you very much for your help. Have developed headache and need some new eyes on it.

Thank you again Ned for your reponse as you helped me solve the image array problem last week or so ago.

Before the image loads if you were to click on the boy with the balloon"the back button" the image would than load later on say the"portfolio" part of the site.

Need help displaying images with List component for Flash CS4 (ActionScript 3.0)

Hi folks:
I am an inexperienced user of Flash CS4 Pro (v10.0.2). I am attempting to use the List component with ActionScript 3.0 to make a different image display when a user clicks each item in a list.
I did find a tutorial that showed me how to make different text display using a dynamic text box and the following ActionScript:
MyList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, ShowSelectedItem);
function ShowSelectedItem(event:Event):void {
ListText.text=MyList.selectedItem.data;
...where My List is the instance of the List component and ListText is the dynamix text box. In this case, the user clicks an item in the list, defined by the label value in the dataProvider parameter of the List component, and text displays as defined in the data value in the dataProvider parameter.
However, as I mentioned to start, what I really want to do is make images display instead of text. Can anyone provide me the steps to do this?
I appreciate your help (in advance)!!
Cindy

Hi...thanks for responding! I was planning on using images from the Library, but if there is a better way to do it, I'm open. So far, I just have text in the data property. This is part of my problem. I don't know what I need to put in the data value for an image to display. Do I just put the image file name and Flash will know to pull it from the Library? Do I need to place the images on the stage on different frames? I apologize for the "stupid user" questions, but as you can tell, I'm a newbie.
Appreciate your patience and any help you can offer!

Need help with image

I sure could use a buddy who has Skype or something who I can shoot questions like this to. My designer wants a retainer of $3,000 but I can do most of my own stuff in Photoshop. Sometimes I get stumped though, and just need a 30 second tutorial. So I am coming here.
I basically need to figure out how to change this image:
But along with that comes figuring out how to change it from a square image to one with a rounded top and bottom-right corner.   Also a 2 pixel shadow going up the right side and along the bottom. I can manually draw in those two pixels easily enough. But the corners look terrible when I try to manually do it.
Is there an easier way? I have been cropping the new image to the proper size, and then drawing in the two pixel fade on the side and bottom. Then trying to pixel by pixel create the rounded edges.
Its not looking natural.
Before you say "Its a drop shadow!" please remember, in order for me to copy that exact drop shadow, I would need to know all their settings, colors, pixel widths, etc. All I have is a flat, finished image, so I have none of that information. Plus, I dont know how to do a drop shadow on a curved corner, which deletes the original squared corner on the image. :-\
If you give instructions, please be as clear and detailed as possible. This is why I prefer a chat medium for this type of thing.
Thanks much to anyone who can assist.

Here is a TUTORIAL on doing rounded corners. Hope it helps.   Could not get insert link to work so try this. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CDYQFjAA&url=http%3A%2 F%2Fmatthom.com%2Farchive%2F2004%2F09%2F10%2Ffast-rounded-corners-in-photoshop&ei=q2l8T_T8 LcKZiQKQnt3uDQ&usg=AFQjCNEsGI12k8Ck-GiuIWMUOLC6m3xoYw
Don't know what magnification you are using on this image, but the fact you have pixels shows it will be difficult to make a nice rounded edge.
You might need a higher resolution image, or at least convert from 8 bits to 16 bits to do edits, then change back to 8 RGB to save. Beware not all toolsand saves will work in 16 bit.
