I’d only change the preloader. Doesn’t fit in…
other than that – sweet. I especially love the gallery

Thanks @philo: you can stop the ambiental music by clicking the PAUSE ( || ) button it can be found at the bottom of the screen (there are two more buttons: PREVIOUS and NEXT track). When a media file having audio (mp3, video, swf) start then the ambient music fade out progressively (yes, for an instant the ambient music overlaps with the media audio channel being presented for a smoother transition, but this is nut a bug)

I’m impressed. One of the best I have seen so far. I like the idea that you give so many possibilities. I just hope you stick around to give some help when and if it is necessary.
btw, I also noticed a mix of music from mp3 and video mixing together. Should it fade out so the other can play automatically or must you turn one off manually?

This is great. One of the best. Your design and taste are fantastic. Maybe it’s just my connection today but the load times are really slow.

Interesting file. It has many features.
Not sure on how easily the features can be utilized though..
Keep up the good work!
Bit

Thanks again
@philco: thanks; the pictures i’ve included in the content are all big (1600×1200) – this could be a reason too.
@bitgod: thanks Bit
; just take a look to the USERGUIDE – it can be found in the menu of this preview; there is explained how to setup the template, how to modify the interface and how to add the content (pictures, swf animations, audios, videos, mixing audio with video/animations/pictures or to feed with html text only)
@MrMusic: thanks; the fade occurs automatically – the engine detect when a media file having an audio channel start and fade out the ambient sound; then, when the media file ends start the ambient sound fade-in (if the user did’nt stop deliberately the ambient music); regarding the mixes: you can mix together a mp3 with an image or an animation (swf) or a video (simply by mentioning the two paths in the xml file: one path for the mp3 and another for the picture/swf/video; the menu USERGUIDE – submenu CONTENT it can be found in this preview explain this)

Had to buy this. It’s not hard to modify at all and beats the pants off other templates. Very generous indeed and what fantastic support in the help files. You are going to make other developers jealous. Can’t wait to see your up coming files.

your fla8 file not work with me : When I replace gas.swf to _root folder, it is all black… Please, can you help me ? Thanks.

Im using Flash 8 also and the file doesnt work. Even when you open the file to edit theres nothing there even if i move it to the main directory.

@SIXONE220: it is a “Flash8” folder in the project root; please read the ReadMe.txt file located in that subfolder because you have to do some operations if you want to recompile the file using the Flas8 Authoring Environment – Flash8 is unable to deal with the “Stage.displayState” without a modification; if you still having difficulties just contact me

I really like this man… Nice feel. I love the liquid feel of it all. The only thing I would change is the way the screens change. You have this really nice liquid feel going but the pages just drop in and out. I would make it with liquid as you do some of the text. To be honest if you do… Im sold!
Either way nice job man.

Thanks woodoodeigns. Hehe…
I know what you mean by “liquid” and I can say it is not difficult to do that (because the AS class is already up) but this will lead to a huge performance problem – so many people over the Internet do not have powerful computers. A website must be, beside other things, a compromise between features and accessibility
Great files! Both of them! They must sell more. 21g, please upload more items regularly – preloaders, menus, buttons. You need new items constantly in the home page so people can access your wonderful templates through your other items. And I think too that your work is underrated.

This is a very nice Job!
Question: on the mailer.php I put my email, but when I receive the email from the form I have the “from” undefined and the “subject” Contactform undefined. For the message I got only the IP address and a text “undefined”
Can you help me with that?
Thank you

Hello PMB14 , please consult “Userguide/INTERFACE/interface-How to access the contact form for further modifications” and, accordingly, access the layer “actions” (the upper one) in the “gas.fla” file – here is the contactform code. Comment or delete the line of code: System.useCodepage = true; (the second line) and recompile the file. If you still having difficulties please email me (because I’ll need more details)

Hi, After deleting the line I do not receive any email, and if I change the “true” by “false” the email I receive give me the same answer, nothing change.
I certainly do something wrong but what?
I’m waiting for your help )
Thank you
