Tools & Tips #1: JW Image Rotator
Tuesday, April 28, 2009
Need a slideshow widget? Hey, who doesn’t from time to time. There are a ton of them out there: Flash, JavaScript or some combination. They all have different features with their own pros and cons. But here’s one that I wouldn’t be able to live without.
The JW Image Rotator is an awesome little app. We’re currently using it on Cal Lutheran’s home page, and I just used it for this past weekend’s Presidential Inauguration slideshow.
It’s small, unobtrusive, and is very customizable through a number or parameters. It’s a Flash app, and while I try to avoid Flash when I can for accessibility and long-term maintenance reasons, the JW Image Rotator just works too well to ignore.
In combination with SWFobject, this one is hard to beat. Take it for a test drive.
Here’s a code example (assuming you’ve imported swfobject.js):
<div id="player"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject('imagerotator.swf','id','750','500','9');
so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
so.addVariable('usefullscreen ','true');
so.addVariable('width','750');
so.addVariable('height','500');
so.addVariable('file','inauguration_playlist.xml');
so.addVariable('rotatetime','5');
so.addVariable('shuffle','false');
so.addVariable('showicons','false');
so.addVariable('shownavigation','true');
so.addVariable('transition','fade');
so.addVariable('screencolor','0x000000');
so.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
so.write('player');
</script>

Flicker is really great when sharing photos over friends and families. I love the resize feature of Flickr.~:;
