CAROUSEL SLIDESHOW

Example

 These are my tips to get the script working



The first thing I do before the implementation of any script is to read the developers view

I find it easier to copy and paste into notepad then print out the full code, then with a

cigarette and cup of coffee I go and read in a quiet study. ha ha

This code below is the developers view of this slightly complex slideshow:

You can copy this ! or go to the page and copy on the site !

After reading the Script go HERE and copy and paste the FULL Script Code + collect placeholder.

Tricky Bit:

If you look at the code you  have to work out the dimensions of the placeholder,

you do this by knowing how many images you want to display in the carousel ?

It will either be 4,6,8 or 12, anymore than this and the page will not be wide enough, the page

 will scroll horizontally.

If it is a 4 sided carousel for instance the Instructions are that

4 sided: 1.42 * carousel image width + 3

which means

You measure the width of the image ( image ) X 1.42 + 3 pix = ?

 Measure the height of the image and   + 2 pix     = ?

With those calculations this gives you the dimensions of the place holder,

Change the dimension figures before implementation.

If not it wont work

Its more than sensible keep the width dimension of image reasonable.

"Make sure all images are the same dimensions !!"

Upload the Images to your site, copy image title- lady .jpg

You will have to add more arrays for photos ,

also you can  link to sites of your

choice, the photos stop in the mouseover mode.

 hope this helps ?

FLYING Photos- 3 D

example

This quite a simple js slideshow, no real problems in the setting up, all you have to do is put the bottom of the script just above the </body> tag.

There are supposedly links on the script but I cant get them to work ? still playing at it.

If you look at the script you can have your photos within the models on the script or change them to rectangles, you can also set the speeds and change the dimentions of the rims.

The problem with Java scripts is the downloading  times after the page has been opened, this is due to the size and amount of images you put in the script, the smaller the  amount of images the quicker the download

Go here to collect a script
