For The Press - A Project Summary

May
11

The site’s getting prepped for some updates.  One thing that went in today was a new image system based on Lightview by Nick Stakenburg.  I haven’t bought the license yet (mystmovie.com will apply as a commercial venture) because I wanted to complete some testing.  But, from what it looks like — things are working fine across XP, Vista, OSX in the major browsers.  This is a good sign.

What also is a good sign is that I’m installing a new image system in the first place.  This might be a hint that a lot of imagery is coming soon… hmm… or, I could just be a web geek.

The Book Box post is currently using the system.  Let me know if it like makes your comp explode or something.

Book Box looks fine to me (Firefox on XP).

Works just fine (IE7 on XP).



weee, exciting! I like the idea of prepping for updates and images and stuff like that :D

Book Box works very nicely for me, I like it (Firefox on XP here too). It works all right in my IE as well, though not quite as smoothly as in Firefox.



It looks nice and works fine for me too (Firefox 3 nightly, Ubuntu Linux), but it looks quite simple and I really don’t understand why you need to buy some kind of system to do it..!? I see that this blog is built upon WordPress, and WordPress 2.5 has a built in gallery system. And with a plugin like Shutter Reloaded it’s dead simple to get the fancy Ajax lightbox effects.



PS: Also, I hope that the Myst movie will be sold in a box like that! It looks great!



Let me guess, we’re gunna see the full Cyan Video soon?

_^^

BTW, looks fine for me (XP FireFox)



Works great on XP SP3.



Looks fine on my computer, XP and IE7.

The images work and the pictures make me salivate.

Firefox on Vista.

Very nice. But surely there is a version that doesn’t require you to buy a license? That seems such a simple thing, and I’ve seen it used in many places…



Patrick, why not just use lightweight jQuery and a free adaptation of Lightbox? There’s plenty of implementations; some are just for images but others will do everything ranging to AJAX requests.

Prototype and scriptaculous are resource hogs and huge libraries compared to jQuery.



Works with IE7 and Safari on XP SP3.
