@robaczek, you can’t put a URL on the big picture as it already has a button which triggers it to close. You’ll need to put the URL button where the caption is possibly.

I’m having a small difficulty – I need to deploy this at 578px wide.
I’ve changed the size in the HTML , and also set stageW = 578 in symbol gallery_mc, frame 2. I also have to change the Flash document size to 578px wide in order to prevent the thumbnails hanging off the left side of the canvas.
However, when I load the HTML page to view the movie, the background doesn’t fill the entire stage. The thumbnails tile correctly over the 578px width, but the background image is offset to the right by about 100px.
What have I missed doing? I can provide a demo – contact me directly if needed.

Ok,
Found my own solution and as the creator is too busy to get back to anyone at the moment here it is for anyone that needs it…
for (i=0; i<totalPhotos; ++i) {
//Initial onLoad variables
this.photo_mc.duplicateMovieClip("photo_mc"+i, i);
this["photo_mc"+i]._rotation = 10-random(20);
loadMovie(thumb[i], this["photo_mc"+i].thumbHolder);
this["photo_mc"+i].photo = photo[i];
this["photo_mc"+i].txt = txt[i];
this["photo_mc"+i].destScale = 100;
this["photo_mc"+i].originRotation = this["photo_mc"+i]._rotation;
//this["photo_mc"+i].originX = random(stageW-this.photo_mc._width);
//this["photo_mc"+i].originY = random(stageH-this.photo_mc._height);
//this["photo_mc"+i].destX = this["photo_mc"+i].originX;
//this["photo_mc"+i].destY = this["photo_mc"+i].originY;
this.photo_mc1.destX = 0;
this.photo_mc1.destY = 0;
this.photo_mc1.originX = 0;
this.photo_mc1.originY = 0;
this.photo_mc2.destX = 50;
this.photo_mc2.destY = 0;
this.photo_mc2.originX = 50;
this.photo_mc2.originY = 0;
(continue like this for all the images you have)

hi, I’m very interested in buying this gallery! But i’ve seen that all the “big” images have the same size! I would do that when I clic on the thumb, gallery will open the image at original size! It’s possible with this gallery ?
I’m sorry for my english. mauro

munchdesign – what exactly is your solution for, since you were asking about solutions for 3 different problems? 
Killer stuff. Keep up the good work. Thanks for answering the questions. This helps out very much when tailoring the FLA .

mauromazzei – you can’t have it that way, all your pictures must have the same resolution, which if that’s not hard enough must be a % of a thumbnail :) So, if your thumbs are 100×80 you can set the big ones to be 600% = 600×480.. Otherwise works like a charm, well worth the money ;)
This looks fantastic! Going to recommend it to a client today

DigitalScience,
How would I make all of the photos hide instead on just the one ??? For example, here is where you tell the one photo to hide:
//Hides initital photo this.photo_mc._visible = false; stop();
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

@robaczek – my solution is for setting the position of the thumbs, my other questions were too much trouble and beyond the scope of this file. I did get some response to email but ended up having to find my own solution due to time limitations – clients are like that.
Fair enough, this is a great piece of source code, if you do want to do something slightly different then make sure you have the skill set to modify the code on your own.

HELP . We are building a small gallery, but the thumbnail images all have steps because of the angle image in flash problem. Meaning, if there is a hard edge in the image and that image is turned, it creates stairs instead of a head line.
Is there a way to set the thumbnails to smooth jpg(s)?

This could use some better documentation I think. It is hard for a nebie like me to find where to edit things.

Hi, I have three questions in order to consider it for purchase.
1. Is it possible to remove the white frame area completely (the polaroid look) around the image? So they would look like a regular set of photos instead of polaroid style.
2. Also is it possible to use vertical or horizontal images based on their original orientation? In the sample all of the loaded ones are horizontal images.
3. Is the source FLA file available in ActionScript 3 version or only ActionScript 2?
I hope you can reply soon, I am looking forward to your response. Thanks

Hi- i have a question regarding the type. Am I able to change the font of the captions on the pictures? or is it text that is not embedded, and therefore cannot be changed? I’m having trouble locating where I would, either in the .fla or xml, i would be able to change it….any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

hey roxkiki its embedded so you can change the font . But!: i have the xml file in UTF -8, I embedded special characters, but if I write special characters in the xml with , the swf isn’t showing them…
can anyone help me,??
Posted 6 months ago
Hi Ayad, concerning the special characters in XML ….in properties, next to the single, or multi line box, change your setting to “render text as html”.
I am following this thread, considering whether to buy it or not by reading the problems and comments of others to see if I will have to do a ton of more programming to use it after I buy it.
good luck.

I would like to know how I can create a re-scatter button . At the moment I just call a gotoAndPlay for the gallery_mc . However my problem is that Images that have been viewed already stay there and become duplicates in the way. Thanks – Terry

Has anyone adjusted the file to load the images in a grid pattern, rather than all random? If so is there a way for digitalscience to incorporate that in a new help file?
