wishlist: slideshow, music management, thumb preview

23 Aug 2008, 08:27

Ok... here some already discussed points in different parts of the forum.

Slideshow
I guess a lot of people would like to use the slideshow module as on old version without anything else to use it in there html page.
Pics should be able with links and text fade in as on old version.
Therefor we got now absolute urls and can even link in specified folders (not showing the other pics)
:arrow: I maybe don ´t want to show each time just an album - better show in page some client examples without extra album navi.

Preview thumbnails
As well it would be cool if you can show instead of a slideshow pic just some thumbs depending on defined pixel-space.
e.g. 3 pics in a row and 3 more in next line.
If you click on one you can deside if you wanna see slideshow (parameters) or swith directly to album.
If the pics would open with shaded background like "lightbox script" or similar this would be superperfect!!!!!! wow.

Sound & Music
As well you cannot use music to specified folder. e.g. Indroducing, portrait series, vacation impressions....
If you change the folder it would be fine if the music fades out and new special sound fades in.

I guess this would be some of the "wishlist killer apps" especially for fotographers and companies presenting clients.

Karl & Co --- you made already some amazing good looking work!
And if you give us those flexible possibilities, you could even charge the double price for it. It ´s worth it.
But it must be flexibel enough.

thanks dude

Slideshow
You can already create a slideshow just like earlier imagevue. Just disable the menu and any of the other controls you don't want.

Preview thumbnails
I am not quite sure what you mean here. You click a thumbnail, you goto image ... What album is it supposed to goto?

Sound & Music
You can already set audio to be loaded from each image folder by using the "use_imagefolder" setting under audio. ... or do you mean something else? Are we that bad at promoting existing features?

sorry Karl - did not find immediatly this audio option - in theme :lol:

Slideshow
You are right - I could disable all around, but have to use a complete v2 for one slideshow?
I thought of having one complete album and push on different parts of the page some impressions from one part (e.g. Portraits --- go to album -- or pop up just some pics)

For example: I have a page with some girls. (sorry I may not show you - erotic)
Each girl has a set of about 5-6 pics. You see the thumbs and if you click on one of those I use lightbox to show them.
Each girl has some text to start with.
Sometimes I have to deactivate a girl and change it for another one.

I guess this would work fine with hide folder.

Hopefully you understand what I mean or I will give you the link on a private message.

thanks

Slideshow
You may need to use a separate theme file, but you can just use #/folderpath/ to control where the link should go .. F.ex.:

yourgallery/#/content/portraits/ ... That would take your visitor to your portraits only... or add a picture like yourgallery/#/content/portraits/julie.jpg/ and it will start directly at a specific picture. Then of course, you could assign a separate theme file also yourgallery/?theme=yourtheme#/content/portraits/julie.jpg/

I am not quite sure what about lightbox ... In Imagevue it opens in SWF, similarly to lightbox ...
