Topic: Extent of Customisation Ability of SimpleViewer-Pro

Hey Felix,

Thanks for the fix on my last post. Worked perfectly.

I have a fairly broad but important question to ask.

First of all, I have noticed that most SimpleViewer gallery layouts I have found online are more or less pretty similar to each other. I also realise that most of these galleries are not the Pro version and hence are not greatly customisable.

Please have a look at a hard-coded gallery I have set up for a client of mine:

http://www.yuncken.net/port_sample_2.php

They are a small construction company, but would like to self administer their galleries. My question is, and I wanted to ask this before spending a lot of time on Simpleviewer only to find out it isn't as customisable as this, is can a SimlpeViewer Pro gallery be customised to CLOSELY resemble the gallery I have already created?

Any thoughts whatsoever here would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Gersen,
Yes, you could create that page fairly close to the way it is. You would need to tweak the as to tighten things up, easily doable. You could aslo make the page a bit more liquid.

Also,I think a huge plus for you would be that the images in SV are loaded dynamically and would greatly improve the functionality of your site. No offence meant, but as it is now, one must wait for everything to load before a pic is seen. ( in FF)

Felix,

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I agree that load time is an issue for the current design. Especially as the image creation will be left to people who are, let us say, a bit short on graphics knowledge.

Once again, thanks for the tips. I will look into this and I'll send a link to you when I have finalised it.
