Flash Photo Slide Shows
|
The example on the left is a photo slide show, normally the navigation panel at the bottom would only appear when the mouse is over the bottom of the photo. The normal appearance would be of a collection of photographs that change every second to a new picture, when the last picture is reached the show starts again at the first photograph. The slide show has the following controls available via the mouse; moving the mouse over the bottom of the picture brings up the navigation panel which allows the viewer to pause or continue the show. The navigation panel also allows the viewer to advance or rewind a picture to halt at a chosen photograph. All photos are loaded from an XML file making this option easy to configure. |

Flash Banner Slide Shows
| This example is a slideshow known as a banner display. Here you have a collection of pictures represented as thumbnails, each has a title and a short description which pops up over the picture when the mouse is over the picture. The idea of a banner is you find the picture of interest, view the description and then select on the description to got to a new page where the full story can be found. The slideshow is not limited to four pictures or stories, you can use the navigation buttons to move through a large number of items. |

Thumbnail Slide Shows
|
This Thumbnail slideshow is one of the more configurable versions in that you can add captions, main picture captions and offer navigation
controls and slide thumb controls. Like all the other examples on this page this version is driven from an XML file, you add the source of
your pictures and thumbnails to the XML along with your captions and headings and then add the SWF file into your HTML file.
The idea of this example is that you have a set of thumbnail versions of your main pictures held within a directory, these are loaded into the bottom images in the display, and when you select one of these pictures the main picture is updated with the thumbnail you selected. There are two options for captions that are configurable, you can have a simple caption like the one under the thumbnail or like in this example you can have both full and simple. |
