By default the slideshow centers the image within the frame. You can change that by fixing it to the sides, top or bottom. Try adding this property to the list (if it's the last one, delete the comma).

viewerItemPosition:['center top'],

Justin,


First of all thanks a million for sharing this very useful code. I had a couple of questions:

1) As we are allowing a high res copy of our photos to be available for the slideshow, is there any worry that it could be stolen? When running the slideshow, does the client computer download the high res file?

2) After putting in the code, my footer (with the copyright info. etc), has moved up right below the Navbar. Could you please advise how to get it down again?


Thanks a million.


EDIT: OK, I managed to solve the problem of the footer. I had used the advanced customization to create the footer and hence had the problem. I inserted the DIV tag and it's okay now...

Cheers,

Excellent -- Thanks!!!!

Thanks Justin!

Justin, I followed the tutorial for the "transparent background" but its not working. I double checked my parameters and its all according to the tutorial. Need your help! thanks!

When I add the "EZ Customizer Header" it drops the menu bar down below my banner. I would like to have the banner and navbar on the same line.

The full sized slide show works great, thanks for hard work.

Fullscreen slideshow is really great, but Im still having a hard time with my transparent Header Background. Also I have noticed that there is now a big gap between my header and breadcrumbs, how do I fix that?

Thanks in advance!

Im back....lol
So far so good and I am way happier with how it looks......the slideshow is brilliant. I have changed the navbar and now want to move it only on the slideshow. I think it needs to be at the bottom at the centre. It can stay where it is on the other pages if possible? Anyone know if this is possible? I can find info on moving the navbar for the other pages but it doesn't seem to affect the slideshow?

The problem I had was I did not copy the entire code from the files, you need all of the code from the fullscreen.js file. Take your time and try again.
Good Luck

You mean copy everything from beginning to end from the post even if my header is not from easy customizer?

To get the transparerent header to work i had to put in the CSS code AFTER the slideshow code for it to work.
Looks great now very happy :) Many thanks Justin B


Does anyone know how i can make it so the slideshow show random photos?
I see the list of additional properties tweaks but i don`t know what code to use and where.

It looks like you have to take the value from the "Additional Properties" section of the post for randomize:true, and place it into your bottom javascript section. I just tried it and it works no problem. Check it out.

Thanks John I was trying to put it in the CSS box instead of bottom javascript

viewerItemPosition:['center top'],

I'm a little confused. Where am I inserting this code?

You don't need to use the "Easy Customizer" tool to make this work. Follow the instructions from these two pages:
http://www.fastlinemedia.com/blog/sm...show-tutorial/
http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=190081

Make sure you don't miss anything on these two pages. Did you download the CSS and Bottom JavaScript files?

So as far as I understand only landscape pictures are suitable for the slideshow, because I can't find a way to show all part of portrait pictures on screen.
Ok I found a way to show all types of pics by changing viewerItemCrop:true to false, although they will not be fullscreen.
