Hello

I have been looking at other peoples galleries to get some inspiration and one that I admire is:

http://www.raulsaez.es/en/

my question is how can I incorporate the top border with the logo on the left and the links on the right, just like what you can see in the above link

I would appreciate a step by step easy guide on how to do it, if at all possible

Thanks

This user has in fact created his own custom html page, and simply embedded the imagevue SWF gallery. The links and logo you see above the gallery, as well as the footer below the gallery, are in fact part of this users custom HTML creation, while the main gallery part in the middle is the Imagevue gallery of course.

To make something like this you would need to create your own HTML, or get some designer to do it for you. I guess it might be an idea for us to create a few basic templates like this that you can easily choose to use, but nothing exists as of yet.

Thanks for the reply, yes it is a good idea if imagevue brought in a few templates to go with the gallery.

As for doing it myself i lack the knowledge on how to embed the gallery into a template so either I will have to search the internet for a step by step tutorial on how to do it or just forget about it altogether

ok, well perhaps I can help you out then and we can create a template together and I can release it public?

Thanks for the suggestion I have been looking on the internet about adding galleries onto "Dreamweaver" and there seems to be alot of tutorials on the subject and so I shall be looking for the best ones and take it from there.

I think it is a good idea for the imagevue team to think of adding templates to this site, maybe it could be one of their future projects?.

They could offer some basic templates for free and some more professional highly designed ones in which people could pay for.

I know of someone who is very good at computers and especially coding and so will try and get him when he is not to busy to sit with me when i come to do it.

ok, just keep in mind that we already do provide a multitude of templates ... See here www.photo.gallery/v2docs

Of course, there are some situations where someone like yourself wants to take the gallery and embed it into an external html design/layout. Most of the time, the full native imagevue should setup though, because you can create menu items in the flash gallery menu you know ...
