I've seen several tutorials for making a photo gallery in flash, but i am looking for a gallery which has to be updated by people without experience with flash. I am trying to make a gallery which can be updated by just replacing or adding files to a folder on a webserver.Besides this issue I want the name of the images to be displayed in a dynamic textbox when the user rolls his/her mouse over the image.

ive been looking for an example or tutorial on how to build a image gallery in AS3.0 i want to have a album/images structureso flash has to detect the albums, wich are first presentedand then after album selection u get the pictures.
View 3 RepliesI'm new at action scripting and found the outline of a script to use for creating a photo album. I was able to do most of what I wanted but unable to complete the final step and cannot figure out how to do it.
There should be 21thumbnails and corresponding full-size images available for viewing on the page below. Trace code confirms that 21 images in the xml file are called but the display in the scroll pane shows only the first 6, which is good, but there are no advancing buttons in the scroll pane to allow the viewer to go to the next image. How do I make this happen?

I want to create a photo album. I have 8 thumbnails (thumb_01, thumb_02 etc)I want, when the photo album opens up, the thumbnails to appear with a Interval of .7 seconds and to rescale them from width and height 0, to width and height 80, with an elastic movement at the end ( maybe that they get a little bigger before they reach their final width and height.

View 3 RepliesI created a photo album using XML and actionscript 2. When I test it out on my computer it works great. Just how I thought it would. But when I publish it and put on the server it decides to get a mind of its own. When the page loads the images will go in a random order but the title attributes I created stay just as it should. So basically image 3 will come up first and title 1 will be with it. I changed the the title to print the url that is being called and it will say the correct thing but show the wrong image. Heres the link -- [URL] Let me know if you would like to see any of my code.

I found the tutorial on how to create a photo album with thumbnails using XML. However the only thing that i shows me is to create it with a scroller. I made some modifications to thinking I was going to be able to turn it into a grid but everything that I have tried is not working.[code]
View 5 RepliesWhat I want: The thumbnails for the gallery (but not the larger image) must be visible on all pages. When one of them is clicked, you will go to the corresponding larger image in the photo gallery.
What I've been able to get is this; [URL] (note: there are no pages other than the initial page and the photo album, its still a WIP)
It's close to what I want it to behave like, the only problem is that each thumbnail simply links to the full gallery .swf, which always starts at the first photo in the list.
I have thought of using a single .swlf and resizing the stage when a thumb is clicked, but thats not a very elegant solution. Besides, it might not even be possible.
Is there a way to make it so that when you click a link in the 'thumbnails only' swf, it will link to the corresponding large image in the 'full album' swf? Or is there maybe another way to approach this whole ordeal?
I used the Photo Gallery Using XML and Flash tutorial to begin creating a photo album. The start of my photo album can be viewed here: [URL]. What I plan to do is have several different "sections" that will load a different xml file when clicked (like the 3 categories listed - baby catori, first snow, second snow which I have started but are not yet functioning). What I have tried is adding a load movie to the text links, and this is working but the photos appear to load slower and it makes the fade appear somewhat choppy. You can see an example of what's happening here: [URL].
View 1 RepliesI'm using CURL to upload files to a service. Currently I'm getting the file content with $GLOBALS["HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA"] then save it on my server. After that, I'm using CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS with the file's full path. Is there a way to send the file content directly, without saving it on my server, as if I saved it? Or is there a way to upload a Photo from a flash app to facebook album, without saving it on the server?

I want to create a photo album.

View 3 Repliesi am trying to put some things together following the tutorials on this site. I did the tutorial 'Photo Gallery Using XML and Flash'and I followed it step by step and uploaded it with all the necessary files onto my remote server (xml file, Gallery folder, fla, swf, and html) - however, when I test the movie with flash, it seems to work fine (except the description test, my question to that later), but when I test it online it shows only the first image (but displays the correct number of images in the gallery); even when clicking the next button, it keeps loading the first image the first image. In other galleries (I use the structure for multiple galleries for my portfolio) the first image never loads at all.
Also, about the description text, in between the <caption> and </caption>, can I use <strong> and <em> and <br /> to change the appearance of my text? All it says is 'null'.If you want to look at what I mean check out my portfolio in the making. The problem with the first image displaying only is under 'paintings' and both the projects in 'design - packaging'. The second problem (no picture loading at all) is on some of the buttons in 'design - identity' (where I have not changed the description text of the tutorial yet).
Again,
i want to create a photo album. i've created a folder and put pics inside the folder. is there any scripts that can import/call the pics(all are .jpg) to the stage while the projector(movie) is playing?
View 2 Repliesits for a photo gallery that I downlowded,the images fades in and out, but only start that when you click a button(timer).I'm trying to founf out where in the script I can change this, so that the photo's start automatically,rather than, on a button click.I have pasted the script below, is that ok, or would people rather a zip file of the files?

I have an XML photo gallery, that when it starts it has a loader for the photos. It always starts with the XML file determined sequence, which is fine, but what happens is that the tabs on the right hand side of the photo loader go astray while it is loading the first photo. If the first photo was loaded instantly this wouldnt be an issue.Is there a way that I can preload that first photo, so that it is in memory when the swf file reads the XML file, allowing the first photo to be instantly loaded ?Amongst other things, I tried embedding the photo in the swf file, but it didnt work...obviously I have no idea what to script...I also created another scene, prior to the main scene, to preload the photo.. but it didnt work either, again probably used useless script...Going further in detail, this is the main script:
Code:
import com.mosesSupposes.fuse.*;
ZigoEngine.simpleSetup(Shortcuts, PennerEasing);

I have been searching for a particular photo gallery, and haven't got far. Here is an example of what I am looking for. With the example I wanting the user to be able to click on a photo for it to appear in the box above. I am looking for a tutorial, so I can customise to fit in my client's flash website.
View 2 RepliesWhat I want to do is to make a gallery based on the tutorial gallery here (thumbs), but I want the user to be able to choose different galleries from within the movie. I figured that I could make a loop to cycle through the galleries, then nest another loop inside it to cycle through the pics, captions and thumbs. While I wrote, I constantly tested the output with trace commands, but when I tried nesting the loop I lost all output.. I'm pretty new to both Flash and Actionscript, so if theres an obvious solution I havent been able to see it.. This is my temp XML file:

** I basically want to put the gallery on a CD so i can give it to someone, and i wanted to source images from the same folder as the actual gallery itself.
I'm building a portfolio website, and I want one of the pages to be a gallery featuring my work.I want to have small image thumbnails on the side, when I click on a thumbnail an image loads through xml (externally) then I want that image to have a prev. and next buttons these buttons load images that are also external.basically each thumbnail loads a diff. image and that image has next and prev. buttons loading other images.I want the images to have a preloader and I also want the images to fade in and out.I've been searching the web for a tutorial or example to help me out, but I didn't have much success.
