Project Description
- Project resources
PloneSmoothGallery is a simple slideshow product for Plone.
It is based upon Jonathan Schemoul´s SmoothGallery javascript project.
Using mootools v1.0, this javascript gallery and slideshow system allows you to have simple and smooth (cross-fading...)
image galleries, slideshows, showcases and other cool stuff on your website...
For examples and further information read on http://smoothgallery.jondesign.net/
You can see a Demo within a Plonesite on: http://www.bitwerk.at/bitwerk/testgallery
Important Notes:
* This plone product is just a quick hack for my own needs but it works fine for me.
* This is Beta code so please test before using on a production system! (Feedback welcome!)
* At the moment not all functionality of the original smoothgallery project is enabled... (maybe some helpers out there? ;-) )
* Read the usage-part of this text below & read more about the architecture of the original project on the url´s above...
