Have used the Java beta on my new website
As the title says... i've used MMF2 to add a cool scrolling screenshot system to my new website for an upcoming shareware app. Only trouble I have is that it is 829kb's! Mostly my fault though as I had to have the number of colours high to make the fade out on the left and right look good enough.

Product hasn't gone 'live' yet but I thought i'd show it off to you guys :)
Re: Have used the Java beta on my new website
Nice looking site and product.
About your java app, for me the arrow don't turn the wheel in the right direction. :)
Re: Have used the Java beta on my new website
I like it the way it is :) Very professional.
Re: Have used the Java beta on my new website
Thanks guys :)
What do you mean Sphax? The right arrow should move the images to the right and vice-versa. Did this not work properly for you?
Re: Have used the Java beta on my new website
I understand what Sphax means. Either way would be correct, but it just seems more natural for it to go the other way. Also, that is the way most things of this nature go.
Re: Have used the Java beta on my new website
It's like the scrollbars... The down arrow move the page upward. ;)
Re: Have used the Java beta on my new website
Yeah, I can see it from both viewpoints. If you think "I want to move the images left" and hover over the left arrow, it's fine. If you think "I want to see an image to the left" and hover over the left arrow, it feels rather strange :)
Re: Have used the Java beta on my new website
lol yeah I can understand where your coming from. As Brandon said, both ways would be fine, so I probably won't change it :)
Re: Have used the Java beta on my new website
Great job -- now how'd you do it? :)
You are right about the size, 56kers won't like you for that. ;)
Re: Have used the Java beta on my new website
Wow! That looks nice!
On the word about size, later on when the active picture object(unless it already has) gets a java runtime you could use that one to load the images, then they wouldn't need to be included in the java file :)
