[ubuntu-uk] Help required! (off topic)
This is not strictly a Ubuntu question, but I know there are quite a few web people here so I wondered if anybody had any suggestions. Have a customer who wants a gallery page similar to this one... http://visualartistsuk.com/marcel-christ I cannot find any evidence that this is a script that is available on the web... Does anybody know anything similar? Sean -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
Re: [ubuntu-uk] Help required! (off topic)
Hi Sean I'm no web developer, so others will be able to help more. But it looks like it is based on Jquery, which is an easier to use javascript api. script type=text/javascript src=http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js view-source:http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js/script I'd google Jquery galleries, and follow the instructions from there mate.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Help required! (off topic)
What worries me more is this one... http://visualartistsuk.com/js/maine.js It looks bespoke, and therefore (presumably) not something can use or - indeed - find out who to ask if I can as there is nothing in the code saying who wrote it. The JQuery plug-in is a relatively small piece of script, which clearly serves as the link between JQuery and the code but it isn't the code and I am sure there is something that does similar to the end result. Alas, I am not being paid very much for this at all... favour for a friend, really so I can't afford to write something completely bespoke.

There are a few nice JQuery based galleries that are pretty much plug and play but there'd still be some back end functionality. It's not an out of the box solution though. s/ -- Twitter: @sfgreenwood Is this your sanderling? -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

I just don't have the time to learn JQuery or, indeed, this project isn't paying enough for it. Need something I can integrate in the same way as I'd (for example) integrate fckeditor etc. My system will upload the images, it can create thumbnails (using GD libraries) and it is the next bit that I need... the end-user presentation. I can create the files, it's the pretty scrolling bar bit that the customer wants that I just don't have the ability to produce bespoke.

The styling will be the intensive bit though. s/ 1. http://gallery.menalto.com/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Help required! (off topic)
No, you're not understanding... I already have my gallery script... but they want a SPECIFIC presentation... As close to this one, which they like, as possible... http://visualartistsuk.com/marcel-christ Single image on screen, then when you mouse over it a long scrolling bar of all the images appears left to right... and when you click on any of them, the main image on screen refreshes. So I do not need a back end as it is already there... it's the presentation layer.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Help required! (off topic)
Quite a few nice designs there :) Thanks Simon. I'll use a few as ideas. I'm a designer by trade so I'll be working on the graphics for the project. *Dino Tassigiannis BA (Hons)* http://www.ubuntu.com/ On 23 May 2011 20:17, Simon Greenwood sfgreenw...@gmail.com wrote: On 23 May 2011 20:08, Sean Miller s...@seanmiller.net wrote: What worries me more is this one... http://visualartistsuk.com/js/maine.js It looks bespoke, and therefore (presumably) not something can use or - indeed - find out who to ask if I can as there is nothing in the code saying who wrote it.
