CMS Made Simple Forums

Hey,

Trying to find out if theres one or if I should try making my own.

Currently im looking for a dynamic slider / banner.

I found this one, and its similar to the one in the Ocean theme for CMSMS.

But, problem is that im not going to administrate this page and the guys who should aint photoshop gurus

So, I need a easy way for them to upload pictures and add text to the pictures and maybe administrate it
all from a Content or as a module.

Greateful for all help and advice.

Regards,

John

Hi John,

Something like:

http://www.doedestreekproef.nl/ 
Just wiat a few moments and look at the header. This is a double layer. The photo is on the background, the logo and white cloud in the front. They just need to upload a picture wit the right sizes into a specified directory. The logo and cloud stay and do not to be added or something. Easy for those who do not know how to handle photoshop.

or

This one changes picture when clicking the menu. A bit more complicated photo wise. These are all different pictures made with photoshop.

Let me know.

Nice reuse of existing themes, only thing I would say is the second site images are probably larger in file size then needed, they take a while to load...

@John

You can use jQuery script in and the {content_image} tag to do what you need...

Thanks both of you,

Ill try something with jQuery I guess.

Do you have any example of sites using it? Or maybe thats not needed.

Try having a look here:

or this one is great you can load it with "anything" and it's very customizable. I had it running in cmsms for upcoming movies for a while with pics and synopsis for each movie.
