Online portfolio functionality help

I'm a clothing designer, and in my sector, portfolios are usually in a book format. I'd like to mimic that format in my online portfolio. The closest I can come is with the slideshow feature: I do a picture page containing all the pages of the "book", and then hope that my viewer will select "slideshow". Has anyone found a way to bypass (or hide) that initial picture page and go straight to the slideshow?
OR could I somehow embed the "book" as a multi page pdf file and have it open in the browser for multipage view through the browser?
Lastly, can anyone suggest something that I'm not thinking of? Maybe templates for this available somewhere?
Any ideas are appreciated!
Dave

This is the code I use:
<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="/_Demo/paulsmith/main.swf"
width="100%" height="50%" style="" id="loader" name="loader"
bgcolor="#111C22" quality="true" align="middle" scale="noborder" salign="t1"
flashvars="image1=/_Demo/paulsmith/image-1.jpg
&image2=/Demo/paulsmith/image-2.jpg&image3=/Demo/paulsmith/image-3.jpg
&image4=/Demo/paulsmith/image-4.jpg&image5=/Demo/paulsmith/image-5.jpg"></embed>
You paste the embed code in the HTML Snippet.
I added carriage returns for display in this post. Remove them when you use it.
This is the flash file (right-click to download):
http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/paulsmith/main.swf
The pictures used are in the same folder.
Paul Smith uses a JavaScript. Make sure he doesn't notice you use his samples.
I now notice that I didn't even bother to change the name of the folder.
Perhaps it's better to create something yourself with free tools. Here's a page that explains it:

And here's another iWeb page with a similar slideshow:

Navigation for an online portfolio website

Hello,
I am creating a webpage to be my online portfolio for my
graphic design work. I used a template, which originally uses a
flash slideshow to navigate through the portfolio pieces. I would
like to have it html instead, and give the user the ability to
navigate at their own pace.
Everything on the page stays the same always, except for the
box that is the actual portfolio. What I did is create the index
page, and then I just exchanged the portfolio image for every new
page. However, this only looks good after the first run through of
the website and all the images get stored in the cache. For first
time visit, you can obvioulsy see the loading process, and it
creates sort of a flickering with the background image of the
website.
Here is the website so far, so that you can see exactly what
I mean: www.jelenaboskovic.com
I already created the website, so to recreate it in frames is
not my first choice. And I heard that frames are not always
recommended. I am a novice webdesigner, so any help would be really
appreciated. I mainly would like to know if there is any other ways
to navigate through my portfolio, without the use of frames, and
without the flickering that it has currently the way that I
designed it.
Thanks a lot for any help in advance.

I also found a webpage that does exactly what I want:
http://www.pepfx.com/web_design/website-design1.php#website1
Is this using a javascript? or what?
PLEASE HELP. Thanks.

Having problems playing movies on my online portfolio

I've been scouring the internet for an answer to my problem, but have yet to find one.
I've set up a fairly simple online portfolio housing my animation, everything else runs smoothly, except when you get the portfolio section (as you can see if you go to my site: http://www.sugarpollution.com/). I've tried to have it so that videos will pop up and play and then you can exit them by clicking on the X button (which loops back to portfolio section on the timeline). However I have come across several errors that I cannot seem to fix ~ the sound of the video will play in the background if you prematurely exit it and then none of the links above the video buttons will work (which doesn't seem to happen except when you view a video).
I'd paste the action script ~ but now I can't seem to find it which is perplexing, as it runs fine in the preview window.
Help would be much appreciated, thank you.

you need to explicitly stop your video when you click your X button or stop all sound globally (stopAllSounds() ) when it's clicked.

Having problem buying online.need your help since it's my first time here.apple is asking for my billing address but when i enter my address here in qatar,it's saying i should enter a valid zip code within the u.s.does it mean i can't buy online

having problem buying online.need your help since it's my first time here.apple is asking for my billing address but when i enter my address here in qatar,it's saying i should enter a valid zip code within the u.s.does it mean i can't buy online even if it wil be shipped within u.s. only?

To buy in for delivery in Qatar, you should be starting from the Apple Qatar site:

Do you have an Apple-ID? if you do, then you should not have to enter your Address again, and may be able to sidestep the US Zip Code issue.

Online Portfolio

There are quite a few different options for an online portfolio out there but I found most of them to either be difficult to modify or have too many features that I didn't need or want. So I took a shot at building my own. I would really appreciate your feedback and whether you think this is up to scratch as a professional online portfolio.
Portfolio Template
Thanks.

Well, the answer is yes and no. It depends what you want to do with it.
Personally I "recognize" that it is a quite basic portfolio, but not as a professional one. I am missing a bit more depth, e.g. more navigational elements so that you can show more projects on different pages.The larger the body of excellent work and sets, the more this single page will get overload.
Additionally, I was wondering if it wouldn't be really nice to give the photos more space. We are not living in 800*600 anymore, luckily. Just think about the difference between a small photo and a full-screen displayed photo... It is just more striking and impressive.
These is my humble opinion, - and btw I love the idea of the little "About" link that pushes the page down to display more info. Add some more lovely ideas like that, since you have already a very good basis!

Online Portfolios

Hi,
I know this isnt exactly on topic, but i do appreciate the thoughts of fellow Illustrator users and Im having a hard time with this..
For those of you that have online portfolios...what do you think is the best/easiest way of starting one? I do not have dreamweaver, nor do i code, so that is out at the moment. Im not looking to necessarily buy a domain or start my own website quite yet. I just need something to direct people to my work.
So really, what are good sites for those wishing to show illustration/graphic work? good flexibility with layout as well?
I am willing to pay for something if its worth it....
thanks in advance!
kevin

If you do some research you will find service providers for a couple of hundred per year plus 10 to 20 dollars for the domain name. some of these provide wizards for making quick web sites and other require you to code. the latter is actually better as you have more control over what your website will look like.
Both Bridge and Lightroom are capable of generating a slideshow or image gallery in either html or flash. The code may not be up to par, but it will work.Just don't tell any html buffs I said its ok to do this, they are quick to shoot down any adobe program except dreamweaver for doing html code.
As for your normal files that are not images, take a screen grab and scale it down for the thumbnail and let it link to your original file. Now that I said that, here is a disclaimer. Don't do it unless you absolutely need to. Why, so your clients or the general public for that matter can not use your files without your permission, Doing so will reduce your income. Its better to show jpg's and or pdf's.that are flattened. Pdf's may need thumbnails so lets call that the exception.
Want a free way to show images and pdf's? Try acrobat.com and photoshop.com also don't rule out yahoo, google, youtube, and vimeo.Some of these will allow you to post a link on facebook or twitter. Plus Lightroom is capable of syncing with some of these sites.

TS1702 I just updated numbers to newest version and found that numbers quits to home screen when I tap the information icon on "function help", it starts to load the "help" then quits this happens on both my ipad3 & iphone5

2/3/14: I just updated numbers to newest version and found that numbers quits to home screen when I tap the information icon on "function help", it starts to load the "help" then quits. It happens on both my ipad3 & iphone5. I tried restarting the devices but it didn't help.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Hi 'baltwo'
Thank you for your link, I already had been on this particular website this afternoon. they only discuss problems in the application and nothing about how the MS Office application installation does disturb Mac OS.
Or have I missed a special comment there?
In any case many thanks, trioloGo

Need PP Functional help for some legacy fields

Hi all,
I am a BW consultant. I need to replicate in SAP-BW some reports that are currently in a legacy system (non SAP). I have identified the functional area for those reports as PP. I need a little functional help from you guys to find out what some fields in the legacy system mean in SAP. Once I know the R/3 fields (and source tables if someone can tell me), I can move forward with mapping those fields into BW objects and the rest of the process.
The reason why I am seeking help from here is, unfortunately our functional team is not available right now and their availability is indefinite. So I just want to keep myself busy till they are back.
Well, here are the fields that I need help for (for now)
The report is for Daily summary of activities at a plant
Work order process
Work order type
Daily Created Bags
Daily Capacity Bags (Bags per Hour Rate* Available Hours)
Daily Count of Work Order Number
Goods issued for work order completion
Goods finished
Please help me identify what R/3 fields (and their tables) correspond to the above legacy fields
Points WILL be assigned for helpful answers
Thank you

Hi,
Work order process - I assume this is the set of operations for the order - AFVC (table)
Work order type - AUFK - (Field) AUART data needs to be fetched for AUFNR(Work order number)
Daily Created Bags - MSEG - data needs to be fetched for BWART = 101 or 102 and AUFNR(Work order number)
Goods issued for work order completion - MSEG- data needs to be fetched for BWART = 261 and AUFNR(Work order number)
Goods finished - MSEG - data needs to be fetched for BWART = 101 or 102 and AUFNR(Work order number)
Regards,
Prasobh

PDF Portfolio Function

Acrobat 9 PRO. Windows XP Home SP3.
I save a lot of archiving documents for genealogy utilization. Usually for a specific item, will have a word processing (e.g., docx), pdf, image (uncompressed tif) and possibly an audio (wav) set of files. Do not wish to use a lossy compression like jpeg for images since over time may wish to re-edit the file content and maintain its original quality (also may wish to save in 14 bit form). The PDF portfolio looks like an ideal function for keeping all the file types for the item together. I built a portfolio with a small docx document and a 4MB uncompressed, tif image file (census page). The entire pdf portfolio was 2MB. I then brought the portfolio into acrobat 9 and selected native viewing (Photoshop CS4). It shows the file as TIF and 4MB in size. How did the entire portfolio file be "compressed" into 2MB and yet maintain the original uncompressed TIF file with no quality loss? The generate PDF preference was set in acrobat to the default; jpeg medium quality.

Has nobody every wanted this function? It seems to me the key function of PDF portfolio's and it is blatantly missing in the online version. Whats up?!

AS3 Timer Function Help

Hi,
I am trying to create a desktop countdown timer (personal project) however I am getting some issues with the script. The countdown timer works fine until I try and get user inputs. I have created some variables to store the end date and have a series of input fields for the user to provide their desired date.
I have provided the complete actionscript below in the hope this will help idenitfy the issue. Basically when the user inputs their desired date and click OK the application takes these values converts them to a number and assigns them to the date variables. Then it is supposed to update the countdowntimer start counting down from this new date value.
I have used trace to ensure the initial values are correct (which they are) and the ensure the user inputs are getting through and they are, I just can't seem to get the timer to refresh with the updated end date.

if its a timer issue; I think your missing the repeat count, which is why it stops after its first run, modify to match with the follwing:
var countdownTimer:Timer = new Timer(1000, 999);// infinite amount of repeats??
Timer(delay:Number, repeatCount:int = 0)
Constructs a new Timer object with the specified delay and repeatCount states.
If that doesn't solve your problem, try posting the errors you get, or better yet post your fla online so I have a better idea of whats going on
