Photos Slide Show Page

[snook]

By default the slideshow will popup allowing you to select a category. Note that there is a "NEXT SCREEN" link you can select to see the other categories available.

Once you select a category the slide show will begin playing but will continue on to the other categories at the end of each section and loop infinitely.

We have literally hundreds of photos on the site so this may not be your best option unless you have the time to sit down and watch almost 1000 photos!

Here are a few tips that will help you to manipulate the slideshow in other ways.

1. THE PHOTOS ARE ARRANGED BY CATEGORIES

When you access a category for the first time, you will get a drop down caption with title and other details for that particular group. This caption only appears once and for the very first entry. So if you missed it, the only way to get it back is by returning to the first photo in that group.

There is a small squares box that may either appear on the top left or on the bottom left corner of the page. This will bring up the photo categories. You can then click on any category to go there.

Whenever you wish to change a category, click on that box again. Also note that there is a "NEXT SCREEN" link. Clicking it will take you to the second category set. If you do not wish to change category, just click on the box again.

2. EACH IMAGE HAS ITS OWN THUMBNAIL

Floating your mouse over 1 thru 16 will display a thumbnail view of each photo. Clicking on that number will automatically load that photo and put the slide show in pause mode. You can now hover over each of the numbers in any sequence you like for a preview of each photo or make any selection you like by clicking on them. To resume play mode just click the play arrow.

3. SPEEDING THINGS UP

To jump through the photos at a faster pace, just click the plus sign (+) to move forward, and the minus sign (-) to move backwards.

Clicking on the arrow with the vertical line will allow you to jump to the second set in the current category. Right arrow to move forward and left arrow to move backwards. Be sure to pause the slideshow if you are doing this! Otherwise it will jump back to its original play position and continue playing from there!

4. PLAYING MUSIC WHILE YOU BROWSE THE PHOTOS

Just below the slideshow is an mp3 player that will play music in the background while you browse the photos but it won't start automatically. You must play it manually. You can jump to any track you like as well as fast forward, rewind [in either direction] or pause the music.

There is also a volume adjustable slider if you want to play the music louder or lower.

Lots more photos on the way of our beautiful City of Panama!
