i've built a software here, it's a photo gallery with slideshow, music, multiple galleryes and subgalleryes.
better let you see a demo: http://cristi.imagin.ro
and the presentation and download site here: http://imagin.ro
any feedback apreciated

- fonts are not embedded (or do you like times new roman without anti aliasing)
- runs smooth, transitions look nice
- the music annoys me (I wouldn´t personally expect that from a photo gallery)
anyway nice product
- the font is chaparoll and is embeded with readability checked, but i saw that on some displays look ugly. i'll change sometime with a pixel font
- the music is up to each user if he wants it, or up to you as a visitor, you can stop it and will remain stopped forever.
At first, the interface was a little bit confusing - but with the arrow conventions it became quite clear what did what.
It's quite intuitive after the initial "Whoa, what is this?" but I'd almost venture that the bottom menu is nigh-redundant and could be worked in much like the Photoshop CS3 menu instead - another possible level to be extended or detached if need be. Having the messages a forced click deviates from the other rollover behaviors.
Would love to see a delayed rollover - 900ms or so - for the messages as well.
Quite nice actually. Readability on the vertical text though is lacking on one of the libraries/images - should be able to override the text being on the side... still very nice indeed.
Would love to see a pixel font variation as well. Silkscreen is a freeware font, I think.
Any word on customizations?
it's time for a completely new gallery.
- i do not have a database anymore
- can be very customizable

I like the improvements from even my quick e-mail I shot you the first day you revealed the update.
So... when's the download coming??
it's already there :)
Hey, i liked it a lot, Are you loading the images dynamically in flash or what? I dont have any idea about loading images dynamically ? can you please recommend me any tutorial to start with ?
Thanks
there's a file read.php wich reads the content of a folder received by POST, then sends as a string all files to flash where i split them. don't know any tutorial for that.
new update:
- can view: jpg, png, gif, flv, mp4, swf, txt
- more customizable
- more stable
- automaticaly thumb creation
- user can change background color at runtime
- keyboard navigation
- 7 kind of transitions

By more customizable, do you mean that the controls can finally be skinned?
ups, not that, they can't be skined. i'll think on that more seriously next time, wich is right now in fact. probably will be a transparent png file for each symbol and each state.
that would be great... the control look is the only issue that I have.
they are ready
Imagin V2.1
Lot of bugs solved, and some new things were added:
- you can add description to any file like here : http://cristi.imagin.ro/index.php?di...res/Portraits/
- buttons can be skined with external files, png
- scroll when thumbs are out of scene
- a title is displayed when you enter a gallery
- a simple html view option at right click
- fullscreen
- you can run through all galleries in a single slideshow (some bugs exist when you enter a gallery with subgalleries)
- txt files are not displayed anymore, they are used for pictures descriptions
- because of the interest, i'll release this days the sources for learning purpose, or recompiling. keep in mind only that is not entirely in english

great update,
some suggestions:
- shortcut commands for next/prev , folder up, play/pause would be great
they are for a long time there, but not documented clearly:
left, right - for pictures navigation
space - for slideshow
up - exiting a gallery
left - exiting subgalleries
double click outside - exiting anything one step
escape - the same
arrows - selecting a gallery or subgallery
enter - entering selected gallery
awesome. just in time for a personal project of mine :)
i've released V3 today. it's a beta but works better than the previous one.
http://imagin.ro
Slt,
very good gallery, but can one change the texts of the menu example " Fullscreen " towards " plein ecran "?
And to me fact to delay a file " _preferences.xml " in an album or under album is not price in count.
Dan,
Edit by admin: no contact info permitted on the forum, thank you
late response, i don't support multiple languages right now, but i will
the second statement has no logic, please try to translate it with google translator or something.
btw, i released an lightbox in flash, with fullscreen instead fullpage, it's called imaginLightbox and is opensource: http://imagin.ro/imaginLightbox/
Hi !
I really like your gallery, very minimalistic and simple, i implemented it for a community project at this site : www.desirdarchitecture.com
Since i didn't find on your website how to ask for help, i post my issue here, so other community members may have help, too. My problemis that pages contact and links are not working, i'am using charles to see requests and responds of the server and it says that when i click on the contact link, the server responds error 301, permanently moved, i tried to install and reinstall...same problem, do you have any clue about this problem?
Thanks
hello.
i have an e-mail address at the bottom of the website.
you seem to have a problem with the webserver. try accessing this file:
http://www.desirdarchitecture.com/cu...tact/_info.txt
i get this error:
"Safari can’t open the page.
Too many redirects occurred trying to open “http://www.desirdarchitecture.com/cu...nfo.txt”. This might occur if you open a page that is redirected to open another page which then is redirected to open the original page."
So i have the clue about why IMAGIN is not working, but i can't solve the real problem.
Thanks for the quick reply, i'll stick for the moment with posting here if you don't mind so other people who might have the same problem, can see it. i was wondering that the problem came from the host, since it's a free one, usually they are just referrers to refferers to people that own the server, so maybe it comes from that, another thing maybe the DNS and A redirecting, i'll have a look at it later. Anyway, i installed it on another host and it works just perfectly so i will redirect my page to the knew one while a figure out what was wrong.
Thanks
