thanks - that sort of works but the full sized images are only the smallest of the jpegs available in the gallery

for desktop machines - the splash image is blurrry and I would like to have 2000px wide pics loading for desktop machines

Naturally it would be best to have the appropriate sized jpeg load depending on browser size

any overrides ?

2 requests -

first - being able to create a custom link for any file (as per current version) is great but you cannot use the very elegant next/previous navigation clicking anywhere on the right or left half of image at the same time. Basically all the image area is taken up with a next/prev link

Why not make a variant on this? - a button or user defined text link which can appear within or outside the image which will open a new link (in a new window or in an overlay).  The reason this would be great is that we could have a gallery where one could show comprehensive background information about the current image in the form of a uniquely composed page.

If the user does not want a link for any images in the gallery they do not enter a url for that image and there is no button or link showing  - ie  the link is an option on a per image basis.

I for example might wish the viewer to go to a new plage (open new window) where I have detail images and information about how that photo was taken.  There are many things different people could use this for.   

second: ability to create thumbnails with the image the same ratio of the original file with padding (if this is required matching the color of the background. Clearly this would not look good if there is a drop shadow on the thumbnail (which would form outside the padding).Presently I regen all my thumbs each time in PS and overwrite the ones created by JB  there may be other ways to get around drop shadow and outlines simply by making JB take the size of the thumb and not work to a standard size. All very well that JB makes neat looking rows of images but the point of having thumbs is to be able to identify an image and having all of the odd sized ones seriously cropped into means that one cannot do that. Being a neatnick is not the only objective

I am presently generating a new gallery and just lifting and folding the configuration files into my main web gallery folder - as a fix  - but that is subject operator error (ie put the wrong files in the wrong gallery when tired etc) and the ability to edit the actual gallery within the site structure is what is so nice about Juicebox -and that is not happening now

The problem has to be caused by cloudflare. If you point IE at http://www.direct.motorimageworks.com/t/#1 (which bypasses cloudflare) instead of http://www.motorimageworks.com/t/#1, the problem goes away and IE works fine with the logos.

I have passed on your observation about mime type handling differences to cloudflare and await their response

Here is something interesting:  I downloaded the test gallery from my server (ipower) and uploaded the precise same gallery to another http://derekgardner.com/t/#1

Checking that gallery out on IE here gives me the slide show and show thumbs icons.

Ipower tech support had nothing to say but created a support ticket.

I am at a loss as to what is going on. I have tried uploading and so on every way I can think of. Here is the latest test http://www.motorimageworks.com/t/#1

I did everything default on iconmoon  and it showed no error messages

I downloaded the original left and right symbols and changed the arrows to delta shapes and uploaded them to icon moon.
this works in IE perfectly well if I open it locally

But it does not display any of the symbols when I view it on the server.

Surely if the ftp method was not correct it would not work with all browsers and the images would not have been transferred

Earlier I also tried duplicating the existing 'play' delta shape play symbol in iconmoon and reversing and shrinking both to make my preferred arrow shapes. I did that so as to avoid uploading and downloading half way through the process iconmoon  - the same effect

I also tried uploading the unchanged svg file from the original juicebox install and putting it on the server and that would not show up either. The server was configured to accept SVG files a while back.

I asked 2 people to test the above link for me with IE and both claimed to get a blank screen with zero showing up

The symbols and pages show up fine on all other browsers on my machine  -  both on and off server

Oh and the example you uploaded earlier in the test gallery worked fine for me here with IE

Is there some kind of security thing in IE which is being triggered on some servers and not others?

appreciate any help

Well, without insight as to how the program works there could be 2 different ways to try to reverse the symbols.

My first approach was to make transparent - on selected buttons that - that which was opaque and vice versa. And that did infact give me a reversed symbol albeit with this funny bits on the left and right. This clearly was wrong thinking in terms of how the program works.

The other approach which does work is to change the color or tonal value of the symbols in the template file - and set the button background to be fully  transparent and there are no edge borders appearing on the buttons.

But part of the confusion is that the software does in fact compensate and reverse the tone or color of the button symbols if the background is the same as the symbol itself. So if you are working with pure white and black you can get rather confused about what the color on the template does.
