First, the URL in your navbar is wrong, it should be:

http://www.allstarspics.com/galleries

Second, I don't see the galleries page javascript part of the customization installed.

Third, you have an error in your CSS. Remove the part in red:

CSS: .smuglogo {

width: 300px !important;

height: 100px !important;

filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(enabled=true,

sizingMethod=image src='http://www.smugmug.com/photos/8812844_itwG5') !important;

}

My site...http://www.thebirdphotographer.com is using the JFriend
slideshow on the homepage.

Works great at home where I have the latest IE and FF.

At work, we're still on IE 7. The slideshow doesn't start.

At first I thought it could've been a firewall issue, but I'm
seeing some of the other's sites' slideshows in this thread.

Doesn't make sense since this doesn't use flash and works great
at home.

Can anybody else not see my slideshow? I think I only have 3 or
4 images.

Thanks
Doug

I am seeing it on my iPad. Your slideshow photos are beautiful and I like the border around it.

Thanks. I figured it had to do something with work. What's funny is, we also have FF and it shows on FF at work.

As far as the frames, its just a free action I found somewhere that I use in Photoshop.

Thank you Jfriend ( John) for all your help! My website is working great!

Im running this slideshow but an older version I think. Version 0.9.6 and need to fix somehting. I was trying to clean up some mobile version css to speed up my homepage for mobile users as Ive been having lots of problems and seemed to have wiped out my HP slideshow altogether.

I have updated all my CSS with an email of a saved copy and still no luck. I dont mind as it gives me the oppotunity to uppdate to 1.1.1 (I think).

Is this the same version of what I was using (Version 0.9.6) with newer features? Im not sure what the differance was between 0.9.6 & 1.1.1

Any light on my situation would help me here.

The latest JF slideshow is 100% compatible with earlier versiosn. You do need to make sure all the pieces are from the same version though (top javascript, bottom javascript, css).

In can walk you through the errors you have in your site right now and see if that gets you going. We often can only see a few errors at a time and have to fix those before we can see the next layer of errors. Here's what I can see now:

Remove this from your top javascript as you should not need it:

RedirectIfNoFlash("http://www.bryanbargerphotography.com/Photography");

Remove this from the top javascript as this is not where it belongs:

HEAD TAG: <!-- Force gallery thumbnails to be larger version 6 -->
<!-- Ref: http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=207570 -->
<script type="text/javascript">
if (typeof SM.Homepage != 'undefined')
SM.Homepage.RandomThumbManager = function(config) {
 var _defaultConfig = {};
 var _config = YAHOO.lang.merge(_defaultConfig, config);
 var _getRandomThumbInfo = function(albumsInfo) {
 var postArray = [];
 var postData = "tool=getAlbumRandomThumbsInfo";
 
albumsInfo = albumsInfo.replace(/Tiny/g, "Thumb");
 
postArray.albumsInfo = albumsInfo;
 var handleSuccess = function(response) {
 try {
 var returnedData = YAHOO.lang.JSON.parse(response.responseText);
 var thumbsInfo = returnedData.randomThumbsInfo;
 _drawRandomThumbs(thumbsInfo);
 } catch (x) {
 }
 return;
 };
 var handleFailure = function(response) {
 return;
 };
 var callback = {
 'success' : handleSuccess,
 'failure' : handleFailure,
 'scope' : this
 };
 for ( var i in postArray) {
 postData += "&" + i + "=" + postArray[i];
 }
 var xhr = YAHOO.util.Connect.asyncRequest('POST', '/rpc/homepage.mg',
 callback, postData);
 };
 var _drawRandomThumbs = function(randomThumbsInfo) {
 var numberOfThumbs = randomThumbsInfo.length;
 var currentThumb;
 var imageElement;
 for ( var i = 0; i < numberOfThumbs; i++) {
 currentThumb = randomThumbsInfo[i];
 imageElement = YD.get(currentThumb.albumID + '_'
 + currentThumb.albumKey);
 if (imageElement && imageElement !== 'undefined') {
 YD.setStyle(imageElement, 'background', 'url('
 + currentThumb.url + ') center no-repeat');
 imageElement.height = currentThumb.height;
 imageElement.width = currentThumb.width;
 }
 }
 };
 this.drawRandomThumbs = function(albumsInfo) {
 _getRandomThumbInfo(albumsInfo);
 };
};
</script>

Ahhhh.... Thank you soo much! Back to normal!

It seems to be working great now. No need to check for other errors unless its really easy for you superheroes! Now that I have it working correctly Im going to attempt an update to the newer version! Im sure Ill have no problem. Just have to pay attention!

..and maybe even get a services link in my navbar if i'm feeling frisky.

Also, I rather doubt that anyone was going to sit there and watch images go for a really long time. The slideshow will currently run for 200 images and then stop. It can be restarted again (for another 200 images) with the space bar.

Thank you, John. And thanks for your slideshow. We are in the pre-owned furniture business and are not photographers. I am working on having our newer Home Page pics have the proper aspect ratio for your show. In the meantime, you can check our implementation of your fine work here if you like: www.fredsfurniture.com.

Any thoughts or suggestions will be carefully considered.

Our thanks to you.

Hi all, I've been trying off and on for almost a year now to get a full screen slideshow, but nothing I have done so far seems to get the job done. I have a feeling there is a conflict somewhere in the CSS and/or JS.

Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm at the point of just giving up.

Check out the Fastline slideshow sticky thread at the top of this forum. It's built for homepage full screen.

I just started working on getting the stretchy slideshow, but I am curious if there is a place to run it from other than the bio box which I currently use for... ummm.... my bio.

If you want the slideshow on your homepage, it is most efficient to switch the bio to be a modified gallery page and use the bio for the homepage slideshow.

If you don't want to go that way, the slideshow reference doc around the bottom of page 2 describes how to use javascript to insert a slideshow into any page (though a multi-used homepage is a more difficult) because you will also have to use CSS to make it show only on one particular use of your homepage.

Thanks. In that case, can you point me in the direction of making another type of bio page? (I definitely want to use the most efficient way of displaying the slideshow on my homepage.)

EDIT: Found Allen's tutorial.

I checked all my css codes and i figure out how get it to stretchy. any suggestions on were to look or what to look for

You are missing the first line of the CSS from the tutorial to make it stretchy (shown in red below):

/* make homepage stretchy so slideshow can be larger */
#homepage {width: auto; margin-left: 15px; margin-right: 15px;}

/* format bioBox */
#userBio {text-align: center;}
#bioBox .photo {display: none;}
#bioBox {width: auto !important;} 
#bioBox,
#bioBox .boxTop,
#bioBox .boxBottom,
#userBio {border: none !important; background: none !important;} 
/* restore width of galleries page */
.galleries #homepage {width: 750px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;}

.galleries #bioBox {display: none;}

you got it thanks looks cool.

Hi! I've run through the tutorial and am pleased with how the slideshow is looking - except - I don't think my pictures have changed size. I can tell the page is stretchy because my tool bar when logged in moved all the way to the left. But pics stayed the same size??

EDIT: fixed. Thanks!
