Fading image transitions revisited

June 30th, 2005

I previously wrote about using a JavaScript effect for fading transitions between jpeg images on a web page. While looking for something else, I ran across a free Flash movie that accomplishes what we really wanted. Check it out in Orange & Blue.

All you have to do is embed the Flash movie into the page, set the width and height as desired, and edit an xml file that controls the photo list and some control parameters. You do have to be careful that your jpegs are not saved as progressive (ours were) as that will break it. It’s easy to open and resave as non-progressive though.
