johan_niels_kuiper Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 <p>Hello,</p> <p>I've spent some time looking for a good and simple-to-use Flash applet creator to showcase my shots, but so far have had no luck finding it.</p> <p>I'm looking for a tool to create a Flash file with, that can handle the following specifics:</p> <ul> <li>background soundfile</li> <li>no index or navigation buttons, save for 'replay' </li> <li>photos that 'move', I need a tool that lets me set zoom and slide on photos when creating the Flash file</li> </ul> <p>I would be happiest if it were possible to just upload selected shots onto a website folder using FTP, but a Flash file with 'embedded' shots would be fine as well.</p> <p>To give an idea on what I'd like to have, please visit <a href="http://www.pieterjandepue.be">www.pieterjandepue.be</a> . I've contacted the photographer but his site was built by a web designer he lost track of, so that's a dead end.</p> <p>Should you have any suggestions that sort of match my requirements, I'm still interested!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill_mussett1 Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 <p>Johan,</p> <p>Take a look at the two product sites below to see if either is what you want. Slideshow Pro may be the most similar to your example. Another possibility is either PowerPoint or Apples Keynote, both of which can be saved as webpages and allow audio and panning of images, autoplay and looping or manual replay and many design elements. I am more familiar with Keynote, which I believe is only available for Mac's in Apples iWork program bundle. You can save a Keynote file as a Flash (.swf) file for a website.</p> <p>Another possibility is to use a video program such as Final Cut which can be used exclusively with still images and of course audio and can be converted to a Flash file.</p> <p>http://slideshowpro.net/</p> <p>http://www.soundslides.com/</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johan_niels_kuiper Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 <p>Hello Bill,</p> <p>thanks for the links. After checking out the demo for the full version of Soudslides, I'm pretty convinced this offers what I need to get going. I can recommend anyone to take a look at the program, it looks very good!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
