I have to say that's pretty nice, especially that it can load video. I've not figured out how to get simpleviewer to do that.

spam is spam, regardless of niceness

Oh now you've done it! :D

the subtle distort at the mouse is a nice touch

the blur is a nice effect, yet the custom cursor is really slow and really degrades the whole usability of it, so i don't see any use for it to be honest.
it's eyecandy at the cost of comfortable user experience.

yeah, I prefer to click, not estimate how far I have to drag and let go in order to see the next image.
the blur effect is nice though.

i agree - great apart from the custom cursor.
never liked them, never will.

You're better off putting an icon alongside the mouse in my opinion

I don't like it.

I think it's hotness. And while some people won't like it because a lot of people simply hate Flash, I think most people will dig it. It makes navigating galleries fun and will inevitably keep visitors on your site longer. And isn't that the point? Well done Tof!

I take it back..I didn't realize you could slide the big image. That's sick. I was only sliding the thumbnails before. It should definitely highlight what image you are on though.

having to slide the photos by click n dragging with my mouse will not keep me on the site longer. I made it through about 5 pics before I closed that window out.

maybe an option to click to slide or drag too slide would be good.

Point5Ok, and if the touch-slide wasn't there, how many photos would you have looked at? Probably only one. And I would think 9/10 or even 19/20 people would stay on the site and enjoy that nifty navigation.

I made it with the future in mind.
I figure in 10 years we'll all laugh at the thought of using a mouse to navigate... as we use our touch-screens to do everything.

I like it. Get rid of the custom cursor and I'd like it a bit more.
Tie in the thumbnails with some sort of indicator as to what pic you're on would be better. Add an arrow button off the image for those that just don't get the drag thing.

wunderbra,
That custom cursor can be turned off in the xml, which has been known to speed up framerate on Macs.
- McTof0
joyride,
I totally agree with you on making an active thumbnail indicator. I'll put that in v1.15Also - I had no idea people would hate that cursor so much! I had fun making it :(
But I really do appreciate all the feedback guys :)

i really suck at A.S so maybe i'll buy this component,
i like the fact that it supports video and has the nice blur effect to it,
if you can code it for $25, i'll give you the cash :P
while we at it, you can you add two logos for $80

Good work Tof
