Topic: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

Did you build an awesome site using Juicebox? Want to show off your images? Post cool Juicebox gallery URLs here for everyone to admire. Best galleries will get added to the 'Juicebox Showcase' section [Coming soon].

Re: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

I've been a SV fan for almost a decade now - and SO PSYCHED for the release of Juicebox!

Check out my rock and roll gallery here:

and my Photography portfolio here:

I'm in the process of migrating from SV to JB, so half are in JB now. Stand by for the rest.

HUGE thank you to Felix and the JB team!

Re: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

Don't think it falls into the 'awesome' category but here it is:-

http://www.stevesnellphotography.co.uk

Features a 'slider' on home page (actually a 'fader') and galleries under the 'Photo' menu link.

Platform:  Microsoft MVC3 - All JB xml produced dynamically.

Re: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

I've recently started getting my Photograpy up onto the web - I was recently using the SV which I was very impressed with, but moved over to Juicebox and so far so good.

Re: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

A Fusion  between the Simpleviewer Flash gallery and the HTML5 Juicebox gallery.

http://www.simpleviewer.net/news/?p=488

As we looked at adding more features to the non-Flash version of SimpleViewer, it became apparent that we had to redesign and re-build from scratch. In order to maintain consistency between the desktop and mobile versions we needed to remove the Flash component and rebuild entirely in JavaScript. To support various screen sizes we had to redesign the UI.

Re: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

I'm making a gallery for this guy, of course he thinks his pictures are quite awesome... well, as I said - I'm making a gallery.

any feedback is much appreciated

Re: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

My website has gone from impossible-to-maintain hand coding to easier SimpleViewer Pro and now to JuiceBox Pro.
So much easier to maintain and update, though I still don't update often enough. sigh.

Rusty,

Well, the images are certainly professional.

What bothers me is that the word "Main" appears superimposed on the vertically-oriented pics (while showing above the horizontally-oriented ones). Not sure why you have "Main" there, at all.

Also, perhaps the preeminent reason that I use JB (and SimpleViewer before that, and some others) is that the images are resized according to available browser/monitor real estate. This doesn't happen with your embedded use of JB... although perhaps that doesn't concern you.

[Edit: Also, in the "Commercial" section, the Autoplay "On/Off" icon seems to be missing.]

Cheers,

Bill P.

Re: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

Thanks for the help and kind words!

I have addressed the "Main" and Commercial" issues you mentioned.
I have found a few other inconsistencies to attack as well.

My site was originally designed for the giant  13- 15 inch screens of yesteryear using DreamWeaver and actually now displays much larger than it used to. However I have never figured out how to escape the frames from the original layout and was pleased to find I could embed the SV/JB Gallery so easily.

Since most of my presentations to prospects are in person, I use my site as a calling/contact/business card more than a gallery, so large images haven't been that important in the past.
i have a different image presentation/delivery site for clients.

I will try creating an alternate website using the same graphics etc. sans the old structure, when I have more time.
I do like sites that adapt to the screen or at least fail graciously.

I am using Coda2 and Juicebox and as i work on it, learning new stuff about website coding about every two minutes.

Thanks again for taking the time to look at the site and offer feedback. I appreciate it.

Russ

Re: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

Okay, I'll add one of my 50 or so JB pages in this thread: http://www.billanddot.com/victory-xct/

Nothing fancy, not embedded, etc. - just, I hope, tasteful and with an easy-on-the-eyes color scheme. This particular page shows:

- Most (all?) of the navigation and viewing-option controls (to which I'd like to see two more, for first and last image, added). [Next and prior arrows, alongside of or on top of image, intentionally left out - the left and right arrow keys still work, in addition to the corresponding navigation icons.]
- Drop shadows, and non-default backgrounds for page and image;
- Some images with text captions, some without;
- Image numbering;
- Image for "back-to-main-page" link;
- And, of course, JB's ability to resize, based on browser real estate.

Generated with JB jAlbum skin, with Pro options.

Re: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

Hi all,

played around with JB for a day now, decided to purchase it additionally to SV which I was using until now.

If somebody cares to take a look and give his/her remarks, I'd be grateful : http://www.my-mk.net/

Best regards,

Nice pictures, but how do you get back to the home page (without using the browser's back button)?

Cheers,

Re: Showcase your Juicebox Galleries

Thanks for your feedback Bill!!!

Actually, at the beginning, I had a "Home Button" in each gallery, but than I realized that it somehow disturbes the small screen layout (the layout for mobile devices). So I just removed the button. But yeah...I agree with you...that's probably not an optimal solution. I will lock into this issue again, but If you already have any ideas how to solve this dilemma...your help would be very appreciated!

Cheers, Flo
