Intro

A customizable multimedia Flash gallery in the work. For now, just an image gallery / slideshow with some parameters.

Features

Loads JPG, PNG, GIF or SWF
Fullscreen
Customizable via individual parameters and individual or global config file.
- Current custom parameters (and defaults):
  - startAlbum (0)
    Album to display at start
  - slidePause (false)
    Pause the slideshow at start
  - thmbSize (50) //Possibly bugged
    Specify the sizes of your thumbnails (you should take the longest size for best quality!)
  - thSp (10)
    Space between thumbs
  - thSlideSpeed (1)
    Speed of the thumbnails scrolling
  - sSInterval (5000)
    Time between slideshow intervals.
  - XMLConfigFile (http://www.e-builds.com/projects/fmg/gallery.php)
    The config file with albums and descriptions.
- The XML config file:
  Just checkout this example for now and be smart!
  (Be sure to check the source of this file. Since it is XML, it could display differently on your browser!)
Albums (or "sets")
Save as (without pop-up). ( = Save locally)
Only images from same domain can directly be saved, others will open in new browser window.
(Can be overrided with a flash security file, cross domain file, like inFlickr, etc.!)
Album covers
Displays bugs & errors in a fading screen
Uses the SWFObject static publishing method (asa nested object or Flash Satay method) to ensure the most optimal cross-browser support by means of markup only, while being standards compliant and supporting alternative content.
Doesn't extract images, only makes them smaller if they don't fit.

Planned features

Donations will only speed this up!
(I am a pro bono developer, so unfortunatly I don't have the time to develop without income. So sad, this world, alas)

Thumbnails are looked for in the image folder. So: make this folder also a parameter.
RSS feeds such as Picasa, Flickr, etc.
Rezisable albums display
XML file per album (to lower load time and unnecessary loading)
Preloading!
Download bar on thumbs
Optionally show thumbs all over the stage! (in rows and columns)
Scroller in album list
Take information out of image file meta (which one is the best?)
Ttitle and description per image
Show loadbar upon current image
language (l8n)
Clean Memory after each album (or make sure memory doesn't go above a certain amount, bc. it tends too with big photos!)
Add effect behind current shown thumb
Catch IOErrorEvent errors
Dates! If no date, take filedate!
